Where records cluster in BT13

Published street-crime records in BT13, September 2025 to August 2026, grouped into hexagons

Records by part of BT13: the east 1,952, the south-east 1,822, the south 275, the west 274, the south-west 201, the north-west 193, the north-east 137, the centre 84, the north 26.

North is at the top. Each hexagon is about 280 m across, the size the crime map uses zoomed in, and holds at least one of BT13's postcodes; darker ones hold more records. Hexagons at the edge also hold records from neighbouring districts, and BT13's records placed outside these hexagons are not drawn, so the map's counts won't add up to the page's total. Police place each record at an approximate public point, so this shows which parts of BT13 records cluster in, not where incidents happened. Explore BT13 on the crime map.
