Where records cluster in BT30

Published street-crime records in BT30, September 2025 to August 2026, grouped into hexagons

Records by part of BT30: the south 1,060, the south-east 274, the south-west 212, the north-east 160, the north-west 140, the east 95, the north 72, the west 33, the centre 31.

North is at the top. Each hexagon is about 1.1 km across, the size the crime map uses zoomed out, and holds at least one of BT30's postcodes; darker ones hold more records. Hexagons at the edge also hold records from neighbouring districts, and BT30'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 BT30 records cluster in, not where incidents happened. Explore BT30 on the crime map.

The records can't tell you about crime nobody reported, which street in BT30 a record came from, or how a place feels at different times of day. See the limits to keep in mind.
