What these numbers include
Approximate published locations, not every crime or personal risk.
Anti-social behaviour is separate. Transport police and unusable locations excluded.
An empty ward count means no mapped rows in the complete required force files; it does not prove that no crime occurred.
These are retrieved mapped records, not a guarantee of complete crime reporting. Approximate locations and unmapped incidents limit comparisons.
Missing ward-months invalidate totals and changes. Busy centres attract visitors, so residential population is not a measure of the number of people exposed.
