Recorded street-level crime within the search radius, weighted by offence type (violence and robbery x2, ASB x0.5), per km² per month, placed on a log scale from 1 (scores 100) to 300 (scores 0).

  • Counts recorded crime by location, not risk to any individual; busy city centres score lower because of footfall.
  • Locations are anonymised to nearby map points by the police.

  • Flood zones show the chance of river or sea flooding ignoring defences; they do not cover surface water or groundwater.
