Where records cluster in BT45
Records by part of BT45: the east 1,034, the north-east 124, the north-west 112, the south 109, the south-east 50, the north 40, the west 4, the south-west 2, 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 BT45's postcodes; darker ones hold more records. Hexagons at the edge also hold records from neighbouring districts, and BT45'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 BT45 records cluster in, not where incidents happened. Explore BT45 on the crime map.

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.
