Neighbourhood Crime

This page allows you to see the local picture breakdown of crime across neighbourhoods – the smallest administrative unit that this data is collectively displayed in. As at May 2011 there are 5,460 neighbourhoods with an average population of about 10,000. For crime rate data, we have left out 221 of them which have a population of either zero or one – e.g. John Lennon Airport in Liverpool. Crime rates are calculated on the basis of crimes per 1000 resident people. To fully access all the neighbourhood data going back to December 2010 and to freely export all 5,000 plus neighbourhoods to excel and much more - become a member of UKCrimeStats - just sign up and join from £9.99 a month.

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.

UKCrimeStats now updated for March 2012 - great weather, higher crime

May 4th 2012:  We don't hang around on UKCrimeStats - police.uk finally released the data on the 2nd May and we have updated our website now. There were 27,000 new locations - of which more later. The main point is the clear seasonal impact of good weather for March 2012 - lots of sunshine, less rain and hotter temperatures - as is made clear in this brief BBC report.
