Official records around this point
Point sources need one coordinate, so these are anchored on WA15 8QW — the live postcode nearest the centre of the area. They describe that point, not every street. Crime is counted across the whole Hale Barns policing neighbourhood, which is the Police.uk boundary containing WA15 8QW. 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.

One month of records for the Hale Barns 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.
