Official records around this point
Point sources need one coordinate, so these are anchored on M18 8UB — the live postcode nearest the centre of the area. They describe that point, not every street. Crime is counted across the whole Gorton North policing neighbourhood, which is the Police.uk boundary containing M18 8UB. Each keeps its source, its geography and its limits. Counts are counts: an incident total is not a safety measure, and an empty planning result is not a completed search.

Violence & sexual offences2 One month of records for the Gorton North policing neighbourhood — the boundary police.uk itself shows, so this figure should match theirs. Not a year. Locations are anonymised to a nearby street, not an address. Counts are not adjusted for population, visitors or reporting differences and must not be treated as a neighbourhood quality score.
