Crime in Westwood has shown a worsening trend over recent years, with violent incidents increasing from 16 in 2020 to a peak of 67 in 2023, then slightly declining to 64 in 2025. Property crimes fluctuated, reaching 249 in 2020 and 236 in 2023, with 218 incidents in 2025.

The overall trend indicates rising violent crime rates, though 2024 saw a 25.4% decrease in violent incidents compared to 2023. Year-to-date 2026 data shows only 9 property incidents, but caution is warranted due to elevated recent figures.

19 Magellan Bay is well-located for families and first-time buyers due to the abundance of nearby schools, parks, and everyday amenities within walking distance. Transit access via Routes 220 and 885 makes it a practical choice for commuters needing to reach schools, the hospital, and grocery stores.

However, the rising crime trend in Westwood—particularly violent incidents—may concern some buyers. This property is less suited for retirees or investors seeking low-crime environments, but families and first-time buyers prioritizing convenience and walkability may still find it appealing.
