Where records cluster in BT4
Records by part of BT4: the south-west 1,346, the west 689, the south 194, the north-east 190, the south-east 123, the centre 51, the east 45, the north-west 41.
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 BT4's postcodes; darker ones hold more records. Hexagons at the edge also hold records from neighbouring districts, and BT4'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 BT4 records cluster in, not where incidents happened. Explore BT4 on the crime map.

About 166 records a month. The busiest month was May 2026, with 205.
Records here changed by +1.2% on the 12 months before, against +7.6% across the Police Service of Northern Ireland area over the same months.
Anti-social behaviour is the largest category, at 36.7% of records, against 15.7% across England and Wales over the same months.
The records can't tell you about crime nobody reported, which street in BT4 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.
Figures below come from official open datasets, joined on postcode. Sources are listed on the
