well if that is the case I have a higher chance of being stabbed, raped and kidnapped when I leave my house in Wimbledon then if I lived in Brixton

It says on the site that it is Met Police data, so looks like it isn't Government generated statistics.

I would assume that all the crime is in areas that vote Labour.

There is also going to things such as hospital, GP, dentist data etc.

Worth a look because it could be a really cool site particularly as it grows.

BADGER:

Be even more useful if you could overlay the ethnic make-up of the area with the crime stats

Boring stats can be sorta fascinating, sometimes because our minds see correlations we are not supposed to mention.

This is good too. It seems that the UK tops the kidnapping chart. Never would have thought that.
