What is CrimeCheck NZ?

CrimeCheck NZ is a free tool that lets anyone in New Zealand look up local crime statistics for their address, suburb, or neighbourhood. Enter an address and you'll see how many offences were recorded, the most common types, year-on-year trends, and how the area compares with the national average.

Where does the crime data come from?

Statistics are aggregated from publicly available NZ Police records covering February 2022 through June 2026 — 1.38 million reported offences across 1,928 NZ Area Units.

How often is the data updated?

The dataset refreshes monthly. Subscribers to the alerts mailing list receive a personal suburb digest each month.

What is an Area Unit?

Area Units are the geographic boundaries Statistics NZ uses to divide the country into roughly 2,000 neighbourhood-sized regions. CrimeCheck reports figures at this level rather than per-street to protect privacy and keep numbers statistically meaningful.

Yes. The site is free to use, the dataset is free to download, and email alerts are free. There are no ads.
