Nottinghamshire Police recorded 616 crimes inside this ward's official boundary over the 3 months to July 2026 — an average of 12.3 per 1,000 residents a month, the 11th highest rate of Nottingham's 20 wards. The daytime score here is driven by shoplifting (34), vehicle crime (16), burglary (9); the evening/night score by violent crime (56), anti social behaviour (24), public order (9). Those two scores are split by offence type, not by clock time — the police feed records no time of day, so day and night here mean the kinds of crime typical of each, not counts of incidents observed then. Rated against the average of the city's own wards, never against another city.

Booking.com has no separate search area for this neighbourhood, so this link searches the whole city rather than just this area.
This rating is derived from Nottinghamshire Police street-level crime records published at data.police.uk — an official statistic covering this area, not an assessment of it. It is a periodic snapshot rather than a live feed, and it is normalised against residents rather than footfall; the methodology page sets out the year, the normalisation and what that means for busy central areas.
Frequently asked questions
Is Radford safe?
Wandroz currently rates Radford in Nottingham as roughly average compared to other neighbourhoods in Nottingham during the day and relatively safer than most other neighbourhoods in Nottingham at night. This rating is derived from Nottinghamshire Police street-level crime records published at data.police.uk — an official statistic, not an assessment. High-footfall tourist, transit or shopping areas can read higher on this kind of measure without that meaning elevated risk per visit, since these statistics are normalised against registered residents rather than footfall — see the note on this page and the methodology page for the full caveats.
Is Radford safe at night?
At night, Radford is rated as relatively safer than most other neighbourhoods in Nottingham. If you're unsure, it's worth checking recent local reviews for your specific street or block, since a neighbourhood-wide rating can't capture block-by-block variation.
Is Radford a good area to stay in as a tourist?
Radford's day rating (roughly average compared to other neighbourhoods in Nottingham) is the more relevant one for typical daytime tourist activity; check the night rating too if you'll be out late. Note that the Booking.com link on this page searches Nottingham, not Radford specifically: Booking does not list this neighbourhood as a destination of its own, so check each property's address against the map above.
Is there official crime data for Radford?
Yes. Radford's rating is derived from Nottinghamshire Police street-level crime records published at data.police.uk, not an assessment — see the note on this page for the exact figure and the methodology page for full sourcing.
