GL15 crime statistics

Last 12 published months

April 2025 to August 2026. Street-crime records include anti-social behaviour.

Month-by-month totals

Striped bars: only some of the forces here published that month, so its count is incomplete. The table names the force.

Street-crime records per 1,000 residents

At least one month is missing from the last 12 months of published records here, so no rate is shown for a full year.

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 GL15

Records by part of GL15: the east 721, the north 164, the north-east 127, the south-east 79, the north-west 56, the south 45, the west 29, the south-west 10.

North is at the top. Each hexagon is about 1.2 km across, the size the crime map uses zoomed out, and holds at least one of GL15's postcodes; darker ones hold more records. Hexagons at the edge also hold records from neighbouring districts, and GL15'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 GL15 records cluster in, not where incidents happened. Striped months add only the records that were published.

Highest and lowest published crime rates by postcode district

Deprivation where residents live

Covers 100.0% of the 22,226 Census 2021 residents of GL15.

England: English Indices of Deprivation 2025

Of these residents in England, 0.0% live in the most deprived 20% of England's neighbourhoods and 0.0% in the least deprived 20%.

Share of residents in each decile, from 1 (most deprived) to 10 (least deprived) of England's small areas. Shares are rounded, so they may not total 100%.

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.
