Chippendale recorded 749 criminal incidents in the 12 months to March 2026, up 6.8% from 701 a year earlier. These are police-recorded incidents, not convictions, and they are not adjusted for how many people live or visit here. House bonds typically leased at $700 a week and flats/units at $850. Townhouse bonds sat at $985 a week. Two-bedroom bonds had a median of $1,100; three-bedroom bonds $1,250. One-bedroom bonds sat at $809 a week. Four-bedroom bonds sat at $1,472 a week.
