GU17 crime rate and statistics
The GU17 postcode district, in the GU (Guildford) postcode area.
Updated October 2026.
Police published 991 street-crime records for GU17 from September 2025 to August 2026. That is 0.4% fewer than in the 12 months before. The rate is 83.2 per 1,000 residents counted in the Census 2021, against 83.4 for Hampshire and Isle of Wight Constabulary. A residents-only rate reads high where many people visit. Police locations are approximate.
September 2025 to August 2026. Street-crime records include anti-social behaviour.

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.

991 records and 11,914 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.
Top crime categories
Share of GU17 records in the same trailing window. The black line on each bar marks the England and Wales share for the same months.
Records by part of GU17: the north-east 283, the east 222, the south-east 41, the north 40, the south-west 18, the south 12.
North is at the top. Each hexagon is about 300 m across, the size the crime map uses zoomed in, and holds at least one of GU17's postcodes; darker ones hold more records. Hexagons at the edge also hold records from neighbouring districts, and GU17'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 GU17 records cluster in, not where incidents happened. Explore GU17 on the crime map.

Is GU17 safe?
We don't label places safe or unsafe, because published police records can't show that. This is what they show for GU17 from September 2025 to August 2026.
About 83 records a month. The busiest month was May 2026, with 104.
Records here changed by -0.4% on the 12 months before, against -1.0% across the Hampshire and Isle of Wight Constabulary area, the main force here with 83.8% of GU17's records, over the same months. With 991 records a year, a change of a few percent can be chance.
Violence and sexual offences is the largest category, at 38.8% 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 GU17 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.
GU17 is mostly in the Hart council area, and also covers parts of the Rushmoor council area. A council area page counts every record in the council's whole area, not just this district.
Covers 100.0% of the 11,914 Census 2021 residents of GU17.

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.
