7935 incidents total over 3 months — averages 2645.0/month, which is what the day/night scores below are based on.

Data completeness: full months, real administrative boundary — 7935 recorded incidents total across 3 months (2026-05–2026-07), queried against Redbridge's actual ONS 2021 polygon outline (the same shape shown on the map above), not an approximate circle. This is the complete monthly response from the UK Police API for each month in that window. Day score: 2.6712 weighted incidents/1,000 people, averaged over the last 3 months (105% of the 33-area average). Night score: 14.3384 weighted incidents/1,000 people, same window (114% of the 33-area average). Both are normalised by an estimated workday/footfall population of 238,931 rather than the 2021 resident population of 310,300, so central boroughs with heavy commuter and visitor footfall aren't overstated as riskier simply for having fewer official residents. The footfall estimate is derived from the ONS's 2011 Census workday-population release — the most recent one published — applied to Redbridge's current resident population, and it is therefore an approximation of today's footfall, not a measurement of it. Rated against the average of the 33 areas currently on the automated pipeline — 32 boroughs and the City of London.

Frequently asked questions

Is Redbridge safe?

Based on real, current UK Police data, Wandroz rates Redbridge as roughly average compared to other neighbourhoods in London during the day and roughly average compared to other neighbourhoods in London at night, relative to the other London boroughs currently on the automated pipeline. The rating comes from 7935 recorded incidents over 3 months (2026-05 to 2026-07), split into a day-weighted score (property crime) and a night-weighted score (violence, robbery, antisocial behaviour).

Is Redbridge safe at night?

Redbridge's night score is roughly average compared to other neighbourhoods in London, based on the categories most relevant after dark (violence, robbery, street theft, public order, antisocial behaviour), normalised by an estimated workday/footfall population rather than plain residents where that data exists, so busy central boroughs aren't overstated as riskier just for having fewer official residents.

What official data is Redbridge's rating based on?

7935 recorded incidents from data.police.uk (the UK Police's official open crime API), queried against Redbridge's real administrative boundary and covering 3 months (2026-05 to 2026-07) — recomputed from the source data whenever the Met publishes new months, not a one-off snapshot.
