The latest report from the Bureau of Crime Statistics and Research shows the areas in Dubbo where specific crimes have been reported, including break and enters.

Hot spot data from 2006 shows the change in the reported incidents across the past 12 years.

During 2018 there was an average of 12 break and enters to dwellings per week, and another five to non-dwellings, such as stores.

The rate of break and enter incidents in Dubbo is significantly higher than Bathurst at 1.6 times the NSW for break-ins to houses and Orange at 2.3 times.

It's also higher than the overall Far West and Orana region which has been recorded at 3.4 times the average.

Non-domestic violence-related assault is double the state average. In 2018 there were 413 incidents reported in the Dubbo local government area.

During the same year in Bathurst there were 255 incidents reported to police, while in Orange it was 238.

BOCSAR says non-dwellings include premises where people do not usually reside such as retail premises, wholesale premises, educational premises, industrial premises, recreational premises etc.

Break and enter is classified as unlawful entry of a structure with the intent to commit an offence where the entry is either forced or unforced.

During the 12 months there were 257 incidents of break and enters to non-dwellings.

The data shows a steep increase in the number of domestic-violence related assaults reported to police.

It grew 64.5 per cent from 346 incidents reported to police in the 12 months to December 2017 to 569 in the following 12 months - the equivalent of 11 incidents per week.

It's also a problem for our neighbours. Domestic violence in Narromine increased by 48 per cent. With 83 reported incidents for the year, it's rate of domestic violence-related assault is 3.4 times the average.
