Since early this morning. It only became available yesterday. I did actually write to the new Home Secretary congratulating her on her appointment and made clear how important it was to many more people than myself that the crime data was released on time. Who knows, maybe it worked. Changes of government always slow things […]

We take it from here. It is 2 weeks late so far. We already have the property prices for July 2022 updated. No word yet on Greater Manchester Police data – not available since June 2019, a staggering 3 years now. Andy Burnham really should assert his authority more to get the data out there.

I have written in the past to Manchester’s Mayor, Andy Burnham, who referred me to his Deputy for Crime and Policing, Baroness Hughes. I’ve just […]

This has become a huge problem. I probably receive 5 or 6 spam calls a week from someone trying to sell me life insurance etc.. My advice would be to block their number using your mobile phone as soon as you have ended the conversation. What is particularly difficult from our perspective is that unlike […]

I’ve just started experimenting with Pinterest – here’s a short video I made of how easily you can analyse the official road accident data with UKCrimeStats.com

The easiest way to check for crime in your area or crime reports (or any area) is to type into the searchbox your postcode. For a quick answer, just scroll down to the map and look at the monthly totals within a radius of 1 or 0.5 or 0.25 miles of that postcode.

We spend quite a lot of time updating the site – so I just wanted to fill you in on where we are; Crime – August 2021 now available Property Prices – August 2021 now available Subdivisions – this means all the different map shapes like constituencies, boroughs, wards, neighbourhoods etc. – now up to […]
