Crime Rates in Manchester - Crime Map & Statistics
Greater Manchester Police does not currently publish crime data to Police.uk, so we cannot show crime figures or a crime rating for Manchester. Postcodes outside Greater Manchester can be checked with the UK crime checker.
Crime Data for Manchester
Manchester is one of England's largest cities. Greater Manchester Police covers the city centre, Salford, Trafford and the surrounding towns.
Greater Manchester Police does not currently publish crime data to Police.uk. Police.uk's changelog lists this as a known issue: no crime, outcome or stop and search data is available for the force. Police.uk's monthly archive has no Greater Manchester file for any month since September 2023.
A few crimes recorded by other police forces can still appear at Greater Manchester locations, because Police.uk places each crime at the nearest point on its own map. Those records are not Manchester's crime, so we do not show them as if they were, and we do not give Greater Manchester postcodes a crime rating.
When the force publishes again, this page will show Manchester crime figures from Police.uk in the same way as our other city pages.
Frequently Asked Questions
Why is there no Manchester crime data?
Greater Manchester Police does not currently publish crime data to Police.uk. Police.uk lists this as a known issue on its changelog (data.police.uk/changelog), and its monthly archive has no Greater Manchester file for any month since September 2023. Until the force publishes again, we cannot show crime figures for Manchester.
Does this affect all of Greater Manchester?
Yes. Police.uk has no data from Greater Manchester Police for any Greater Manchester postcode at present, including Salford, Trafford, Stockport, Bolton, Wigan and the other boroughs. If you search one of these postcodes, the checker shows a notice instead of crime figures or a rating.
