Reported offences reflect police-recorded crime, not all crime; reporting rates vary by area and offence type. Counts are for the whole police jurisdiction, not any specific suburb or address — indicative only. Source: Tasmania Police (Dept of Police, Fire & Emergency Management) crime statistics (CC BY 4.0).
