Street-crime records per 1,000 residents
Published street-crime records (including anti-social behaviour), September 2025 to August 2026, per 1,000 usual residents in the Census 2021.
DN38
59.0
Humberside Police
105.2
170 records and 2,882 residents. Residents-only rates overstate crime where many people visit who do not live there, such as city centres, stations, and retail parks. Residents are counted at March 2021 while records are current, so areas with many newer homes can read higher.
No England and Wales comparison is shown, because not every force involved has published every month of this window.
Rates cover England and Wales only. Residents: Office for National Statistics, Census 2021 postcode estimates, Open Government Licence v3.0. How rates are built.

Where records cluster in DN38
Records by part of DN38: the north-west 102, the south 22, the south-west 12, the north 11.
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 DN38's postcodes; darker ones hold more records. Hexagons at the edge also hold records from neighbouring districts, and DN38'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 DN38 records cluster in, not where incidents happened. Explore DN38 on the crime map.

Is DN38 safe?
We don't label places safe or unsafe, because published police records can't show that. This is what they show for DN38 from September 2025 to August 2026.
About 14 records a month. The busiest month was October 2025, with 20.
Records here changed by +11.8% on the 12 months before, against +4.8% across the Humberside Police area, the main force here with 77.6% of DN38's records, over the same months. With 170 records a year, a change of a few percent can be chance.
Violence and sexual offences is the largest category, at 37.1% 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 DN38 a record came from, or how a place feels at different times of day. The rate per 1,000 residents is above. 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.
Covers 100.0% of the 2,882 Census 2021 residents of DN38.

Share of residents in each decile, from 1 (most deprived) to 10 (least deprived) of England's small areas.
Deciles rank neighbourhoods within one nation, so English and Welsh deciles don't compare. They describe areas, not the people living in them, and crime is one of the things the index measures, so this mix partly overlaps the crime figures above. How this is built.
