Crime Statistics
West Mercia is a low crime area and we are working hard to ensure that it continues to be a safe place.
To help you understand the level of crime in your neighbourhood, we have produced the CrimeMapper website which gives you information about levels of:
- Burglary
- Robbery
- Vehicle crime
- Anti-social behaviour
- Violent crime
CrimeMapper includes information at national and local levels for every force in England and Wales. In West Mercia you can find statistics for the whole force, each of our policing divisions and for every electoral ward at the click of a button.
Updated monthly, CrimeMapper includes facilities for users to download statistics, compare policing areas in different parts of the country and view information about local policing in each area.
Simply type in your postcode, a place name or browse the map online to find comprehensive information for your area.
In addition, you can click on the ‘Find out more' tab of each page to find out news of police activity, campaigns, toolkits and links to your local policing teams. It is also important to read the ‘How was this calculated'' in the crime figures section. West Mercia is generally a low crime area, and because of this, percentage changes alone can be misleading, so remember to look at the actual numbers of crime as well.
Other Performance Information
In addition to local crime statistics, West Mercia Police publishes a range of other force-level crime statatistics.
