- Anti-social Behaviour Increase in summer ASB at Ram Quarter relating to the Night Time Economy. ***EMERGING ISSUE*** With recent warm sunshine and long summer evenings, there has been a marked increase in reports of ASB from within the Ram Quarter.

How to Read This
Designed for travel planning, not certainty.
- Recent street-level incidents within the selected radius are weighted by category.
- Violence, robbery, weapons and burglary carry higher weight than lower-severity categories.
- A stable neighbourhood baseline from the official English Indices of Deprivation crime domain anchors the score.
- Dense central visitor areas are normalized so footfall does not automatically imply danger.
- Improving recent trend slightly lifts the score; a rising trend lowers it.
- The score is indicative and based only on public recorded crime data, not a guarantee of personal safety.
