Where to stay in Norwich

Every area rated for day and night, with the reasoning and the sources behind each rating.

🟢 Official crime data · Norfolk Constabulary, data.police.uk Day and night here are split by offence type, not by clock time: the police feed records no time of day, so “by day” weights shoplifting, theft and burglary and “at night” weights violence, robbery and anti-social behaviour. An area with a busy high street and quiet evenings can therefore read worse by day, and that is the offence mix, not a count of incidents seen at each hour. Each area page shows the figures behind both. Methodology →

For a short stay in Norwich: Mancroft and Eaton. One area for each kind of trip, each shown with its own day and night rating — including where that rating says be careful. None of them is here because someone paid for it.

For a first visit Mancroft
Higher caution advisedday Higher caution advisednight
4 of the city's main sights are close enough to walk between. Still a practical base for a first visit: the rating is driven by shoplifting during the day and violence after dark, counted as a rate against the 10,617 people registered as living here rather than the far larger number who pass through. Take extra care, particularly after dark — that is what the rating is for, not a reason to stay out of the area. Find a place in Mancroft →
