Why do crimes and ASBs fall outside of the neighbourhood boundaries?
This is because we are showing all crimes and ASBs within 1 mile of the centre of the neighbourhood. It is also the case that street level crimes are not tied to neighbourhood boundaries but to Police Forces. To protect identities they are located on or near a given street which does not end at a neighbourhood boundary.

The Economic Policy Centre www.economicpolicycentre.com has made every effort in order to ensure that the data for UkCrimeStats is accurate and up to date. However, we are aware of certain deficiencies in this data which are beyond our control. That's because as a 3rd party developer, we do not collect the data, the Police do who then hand it over to another data company to release to 3rd party developers such as ourselves. We only download and analyse it so that you can use it. For full detail of these deficiencies, please read here.

Usually, this leads to a rise in opportunities for crime and higher crime rates. So there's a sizeable increase on February 2011. However, ...  Continue reading

My memo to the Crime and Justice Transparency Sector Panel
