Crimes police recorded in July 2026 within roughly 1 mile of each district's centre, across the 5 Salford districts with a published figure. Counts, from data.police.uk street-level crime API.
Read this first
These are counts, not rates. data.police.uk street-level crime API publishes how many crimes were recorded near a point; it publishes no population figure to divide by. A district with a station, shops and bars will record more crime than a residential one because more people pass through it, not necessarily because residents are more likely to be a victim. Recorded crime is also only crime that was reported and recorded, and reporting rates vary by crime type and by area.
Use this to see the shape of a city and to prompt better questions — not to decide that one district is good and another bad.
