PO14 crime rate and statistics
The PO14 postcode district, in the PO (Portsmouth) postcode area.
Updated October 2026.
Police published 2,001 street-crime records for PO14 from September 2025 to August 2026. That is 1.8% more than in the 12 months before. The rate is 59.5 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.
PO14
59.5
Hampshire and Isle of Wight Constabulary
83.4
2,001 records and 33,638 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 PO14 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 PO14: the north-west 636, the east 554, the north-east 379, the south 271, the south-east 271, the west 46, the north 34, the south-west 17.
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 PO14's postcodes; darker ones hold more records. Hexagons at the edge also hold records from neighbouring districts, and PO14'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 PO14 records cluster in, not where incidents happened. Explore PO14 on the crime map.

Is PO14 safe?
We don't label places safe or unsafe, because published police records can't show that. This is what they show for PO14 from September 2025 to August 2026.
About 167 records a month. The busiest month was August 2026, with 209.
Records here changed by +1.8% on the 12 months before, against -1.0% across the Hampshire and Isle of Wight Constabulary area, the main force here with 100.0% of PO14's records, over the same months.
Violence and sexual offences is the largest category, at 43.1% 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 PO14 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 33,638 Census 2021 residents of PO14.

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.

Schools and colleges
20 open establishments with a postcode in PO14, from the Department for Education's Get Information About Schools register. Edition: extract of 29 Oct 2026.
Postcodes in England with properties in each band (Environment Agency), counted by the highest long-term risk band of any property in the postcode. Postcodes not listed have no property in a rivers-and-sea risk area, and postcodes outside England are not covered. Risk applies to the area around an address, not the address itself. Surface-water risk is not published by postcode. Edition: NaFRA2, revised 18 Jun 2026.
