"Matraville - Safer than is perceived"
Obviously some people had unpleasant personal experience however we cannot generalize things based on someone's individual experience. Like anywhere else there are good and bad spots to every Sydney suburb. I grew up in area and my parents still live in Matraville near the shopping center (Australia Av.) Matraville is very quiet family area and very close community indeed. I think that there is different perception and this suburb is safer than generally believed. Our house has never been broken into and my opinion about Matraville is quite different and very positive. The latest NSW Bureau of Crime Statistics and Research facts are very different from personal view expressed here by some individuals. Waverley or Woollahra are both ranked higher than LGA Randwick / Matraville for Break& Enter although the average B & E rate in all three LGA is higher than NSW average . Generally speaking (and according to the crime figures) the eastern suburbs appeared reasonably more safer than for example Inner City or Inner West.
