What this measures
Offences against the person, from common assault and harassment to wounding, together with rape and other sexual offences. These are grouped together in the police.uk data and cannot be separated here.
Police-recorded crime counts offences reported to and recorded by the police. It is affected by whether people report crime and by changes in police recording practice, so it does not measure all crime that happens. The Crime Survey for England and Wales is the better guide to long-term trends in the crimes it covers. Police recorded crime is not designated as National Statistics.
A higher recorded rate does not mean an area is more dangerous.
