Oadby and Wigston: what the figures show
Police.uk publishes 258 crime records and 60 anti-social behaviour records for Oadby and Wigston local authority (2023 boundary) in July 2026. Across the latest 12 reporting months, the published territorial-force crime count, excluding British Transport Police, is 3,201.
The resident population used is 61,533, from ONS mid-2025 estimates on the same local-authority geography. Dividing the annual territorial-force crime count (excluding British Transport Police and ASB) by this population gives 52.0 crimes per 1,000 residents. This is a reporting rate, not the probability that a resident will experience crime. Visitors, commuters and nightlife can affect busy areas. Population source.
British Transport Police has missing submissions in this period. Its records are included in the monthly category totals when supplied, but excluded consistently from annual rates and comparisons in both years. The rate covers published territorial-force street-level crimes; it is not an all-crime rate.

How these statistics are collected
We aggregate the Police.uk monthly bulk archive across submitting forces. Local-authority records are assigned with the ONS 2021 LSOA-to-2023 local-authority lookup, with spatial assignment when an LSOA match is absent. Neighbourhood and court-area counts use the published anonymised coordinates inside the displayed boundary. Non-empty duplicate crime identifiers are removed within each reporting month; anonymous ASB records are retained.
Coordinates are anonymised before publication and grouped again for this map. Unreported incidents, records without a usable location, some offence types and missing force submissions are outside these figures. Whole-area geographic coverage does not mean every crime is included.
Missing submissions during the latest 12 months include: British Transport Police. Read current Police.uk coverage notes.
