Late-week activity and evening peaks
The day-of-week chart shows offending was strongest later in the week, with Thursday standing out as the busiest day. Friday and Saturday were also higher than the earlier days.
The time-of-day chart shows a peak in the late evening, around 10pm. For local residents, that may be a reminder to stay alert after dark and keep an eye on home and vehicle security.
The monthly trend also rises and falls across the year. The chart shows stronger periods around December and January, then again through April, May and June. Lower points appear around July and August, with another dip in March.
Money trap warning from Crime Stoppers
Separately, Crime Stoppers Queensland is warning people not to fall for organised crime “money traps”. A national awareness campaign launched in Brisbane on 23 July 2026 is highlighting the ways criminals may try to recruit ordinary people through fake job offers, social media messages and promises of easy money.
Crime Stoppers says warning signs can include requests to use a personal bank account, share banking details or keep the arrangement secret. The campaign is aimed in particular at protecting international students and temporary visa holders, but the message is for everyone.
For Centenary Heights households, the advice is simple: stay cautious, question anything that seems off, and report suspicious behaviour anonymously if needed.
