Where records cluster in BT32

Published street-crime records in BT32, September 2025 to August 2026, grouped into hexagons

Records by part of BT32: the north-west 1,412, the west 254, the north 35, the south 20, the south-west 18, the south-east 14, the north-east 13, the east 12, the centre 2.

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 BT32's postcodes; darker ones hold more records. Hexagons at the edge also hold records from neighbouring districts, and BT32'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 BT32 records cluster in, not where incidents happened. Explore BT32 on the crime map.
