Other notable categories included other theft (130), vehicle crime (97), burglary (60), robbery (53) and drug‑related incidents (70).
The geographic distribution of incidents shows a concentration in a few hotspots. The Parking Area near the city centre topped the list with 122 reported crimes, and the Shopping Area recorded 95 incidents. South Parade reported 50 cases, while Maypole Yard and the Nightclub location each saw 43 and 42 incidents respectively. Other busy locations such as Angel Row, the Bus/Coach Station, High Street, and several retail and leisure venues also featured in the top counts, indicating that high footfall areas remain focal points for reported crime.
It is important to note that these figures cover the Police.uk local search area around the configured city‑centre point and do not represent crime levels for the entire city or the wider local‑authority area. The data reflect only reported crimes and are subject to a typical 2‑3 month reporting lag, meaning some incidents may not yet be included. Nottingham Chronicle will continue to monitor local crime patterns and provide updates as new information becomes available.
