We are currently updating crime – and in the case of the London Metropolitan Police, September as well. Will be live shortly.

An interesting question just put to me by somebody by email, do we have it and which day is more likely to have what kind of crime?

But we don’t have it, all crime data is timestamped by month and year only, for Home Office reasons of data anonymity.

Obviously as a crime data site handling payment, you have to be an example. It was however recently pointed out to us that we were not. Basically, images uploaded via wordpress must have an https link otherwise the whole page is deemed to be insecure. This has now been fixed. But you will see that all of our pages are now https and show up as having the padlock sign in the url display of your browser which is more than having an SSL certificate (which we do – GoDaddy).

You should know that as with every month, there are a few Forces that have either not updated on time or are incomplete. These are;

Metropolitan Police Force – no September data at all

Cheshire Constabulary – no ASB incidents for September (or indeed since February – pretty unlikely)

Bedfordshire Police – missing August and July

Cambridgshire Constabulary – still missing May, June, July, August

Thames Valley Police – have only reported ASB incidents but no crimes at all for September

We will keep going back and checking for updates every month. However the Home Office really needs to up their game in getting Police Forces to report in time – which they always used to.

Boundaries do change, much more frequently than those ordained by the Boundary Commission for constitutuencies for General Elections. We have deleted about 10 that no longer exist and added about 15 new ones like Axminster and Kilmington in Devon.

A special thanks to one of our subscribers who suggested it. For some time, we have show how crime moves over a selected period of months around a specified radius around a postcode centroid – anywhere in England, Wales or Northern Ireland covering some 1.6 million postcodes and 3, 2, 1, 0.5 and 025 miles radiuses. Then somebody pointed out, why don’t you just show a heatmap for a range of months as a static image?

So we did it.

Here is a static heatmap image of 1 mile radius around the postcode for 10 Downing Street – just in case you happen to live or work there . . .

As you’ll see, most of it is concentrated in the Soho area to the North, there’s a spot around Big Ben, which will be Westminster Tube Station. Then there’s a bit around the South Bank and Victoria Station. 10 Downing Street though looks nice and safe, as you might expect.

By the way, we have to make this a subscriber only feature because it’s quite server intensive. With a login, you can run a static or monthy by month heatmap from this link here http://ukcrimestats.com/MembersArea/Heatmap/.
