## Is EN3 safe? What police records show

In the 12 months to August 2026, police recorded crimes and anti-social behaviour in EN3 at a rate of 119.5 per 1,000 people.
That compares with 99.5 per 1,000 people across the EN postcode area.
In August 2026 alone, 613 cases of crime and anti-social behaviour were recorded in EN3.
In the 12 months to August 2026, the most common types were violence and sexual offences (2,197), anti-social behaviour (1,829) and other crime (1,049).
A year earlier, the recorded crime rate in EN3 was 118.4 per 1,000 people.
