Notes

The data are published by the Single Online Home National Digital Team, and are provided by the 43 geographic police forces in England and Wales, the British Transport Police, the Police Service of Northern Ireland and the Ministry of Justice.

The values above are for reports of crimes. They include cases where no suspect was identified or no further action was taken.

Crimes that have no location recorded are not included here. Crimes whose location took place in rivers, estuaries, or at sea are first checked to see if they are within 200 metres of a constituency boundary. If they are they will be attached to that constituency. Otherwise they are not included with any constituency.

Some police forces may not have submitted data in certain years. For example, Greater Manchester Police are missing for 2021/2022/2023 and Devon & Cornwall Police are missing in 2023. Crimes may have been recorded as happening within these police force areas by other police forces.
