Crime & safety

Is this area getting better or worse?

State it relatively: X crimes in 12 months vs the regional average; avoid absolute "safe/unsafe".

Police.uk street-level data by location; read the 12-month trend, not one month.

Locations are snapped to anonymised map points for victim privacy — not the actual address.

Not directly; lenders don't decline on crime, but insurers price premiums on it.

Point to the vehicle-crime share + trend vs comparator.

Lead with the 12-month trend, which is more reliable than any single month.
