Street-crime records per 1,000 residents
10% of this area's records sit at postcodes created after Census Day 2021, whose residents the census could not count, so no rate is shown.
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 YO62
Records by part of YO62: the east 224, the south-west 147, the south-east 55, the south 24, the north-east 13, the west 9, the north 5, the north-west 3, the centre 1.
North is at the top. Each hexagon is about 1.1 km across, the size the crime map uses zoomed out, and holds at least one of YO62's postcodes; darker ones hold more records. Hexagons at the edge also hold records from neighbouring districts, and YO62'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 YO62 records cluster in, not where incidents happened. Explore YO62 on the crime map.

Is YO62 safe?
We don't label places safe or unsafe, because published police records can't show that. This is what they show for YO62 from September 2025 to August 2026.
About 27 records a month. The busiest month was June 2026, with 35.
Records here changed by -7.7% on the 12 months before, against +6.2% across the North Yorkshire Police area over the same months. With 324 records a year, a change of a few percent can be chance.
Violence and sexual offences is the largest category, at 39.8% 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 YO62 a record came from, or how a place feels at different times of day. 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 12,065 Census 2021 residents of YO62.

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.
