Important! The categories that crime is recorded under are not always consistent. Particularly in the early days of the published statistics, it's quite likely that crimes were allocated to the wrong categories. So be wary of drawing conclusions from data for more than around ten years ago.

There are also differences in the way that different police forces categorise crimes, particularly those which could fall into more than one category. So you can't always draw a meaningful comparison with other locations, as the difference may be a recording difference rather than reflecting an actual difference in types of crime.
