You asked

Would you please be able to share the breakdown of crime statistics covering SO15 postcode in Southampton?

We said

Thank you for your request.

Unfortunately, we do not hold the information you have requested covering the SO15 postcode.

We produce data from both the Crime Survey for England and Wales (CSEW) and police recorded crime.

The lowest geography that we disaggregate CSEW crime data by is region, so we do not hold statistics from the CSEW at output code . We have not previously created CSEW statistics at a lower level of geography, as the sample size is not robust enough to provide reliable estimates.

For police recorded crime, the lowest geographical level we hold is Community Safety Partnership area, which in most cases equates to local authority. This data can be found in tables C1 to C5 in our Crime in England and Wales: Police Force Area data tables. 

You may find what you are looking for on the Police.UK website, as they do publish data at postcode level. You can find out more information about this on their 'About Police.UK' webpage or you can contact them directly at support@data.police.uk or via their contact page.
