GL16 crime statistics

Last 12 published months

August 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 GL16

Records by part of GL16: the south-west 122, the south 100, the centre 75, the south-east 53, the north-east 44, the east 37, the north 33, the west 14, the north-west 5.

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 GL16's postcodes; darker ones hold more records. Hexagons at the edge also hold records from neighbouring districts, and GL16'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 GL16 records cluster in, not where incidents happened. Striped months add only the records that were published.

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.
