In the 12 months to August 2026, police recorded crimes and anti-social behaviour in PO15 at a rate of 65.7 per 1,000 people.
That compares with 92.9 per 1,000 people across the PO postcode area.
In August 2026 alone, 145 cases of crime and anti-social behaviour were recorded in PO15.
In the 12 months to August 2026, the most common types were violence and sexual offences (678), other crime (322) and anti-social behaviour (204).
A year earlier, the recorded crime rate in PO15 was 64.1 per 1,000 people.

Rates are per resident, so places that many people work in or visit, such as Westminster, the City of London and other city centres, have far higher rates than their residents alone would suggest.
