Where records cluster in BT15
Records by part of BT15: the south 2,660, the south-east 709, the north 476, the south-west 385, the north-east 363, the north-west 334, the centre 199, the west 160, the east 114.
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 BT15's postcodes; darker ones hold more records. Hexagons at the edge also hold records from neighbouring districts, and BT15'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 BT15 records cluster in, not where incidents happened. Explore BT15 on the crime map.

About 373 records a month. The busiest month was July 2026, with 454.
Records here changed by -1.0% on the 12 months before, against -1.7% across the Police Service of Northern Ireland area over the same months.
Violence and sexual offences is the largest category, at 30.1% of records, against 35.5% across England and Wales over the same months.
The records can't tell you about crime nobody reported, which street in BT15 a record came from, or how a place feels at different times of day. See the limits to keep in mind.
Limits to keep in mind
Published locations are approximate; they are snapped to anonymous map points before release, and each record is assigned to a district by its nearest postcode. Counts near district boundaries are indicative.
These are counts of published police records, not all crime, and not a safety score.
Outcome labels in the source data are not court results or conviction rates.
