All recorded crime by local authority, ranked

Every area with a published figure, in order of offences per 1,000 residents, lowest first, because this layer states that lower is better. Equal figures share a rank and are printed as ties; the order within a tie is alphabetical and means nothing.

How this ranking is made

Offences per 1,000 residents: offences in the window ÷ resident population × 1,000.. Offences recorded by police and published in the data.police.uk street-level archive, aggregated to local authorities by offence location (LSOA lookup) and to police force areas, over rolling twelve-month windows. Rates use ONS mid-year resident population estimates. Anti-social behaviour is an incident type, not a recorded crime, and is excluded from "all".

Source: Home Office: data.police.uk street-level crime, cumulative monthly archive · data.police.uk archive to June 2026; ONS mid-2025 population estimates. Boundaries: 2025-05 BGC v2 LAD_MAY_2025_UK_BGC_V2. Percentiles are calculated across the whole UK, so they do not change when the table is filtered to one nation. A ranking compares areas of very different sizes and populations; the figure is the publisher’s own, and its rank is Civometry’s ordering of those published figures.
