Area figures: Crime is police-recorded street-level data over the last 13 months, which places each incident at an approximate point. The 2 schools and 0 stops listed are measured in a straight line from PE31 7UW, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
