Crime Map - Metropolitan Police Crime Map
The Metropolitan Police have created this site to illustrate to the public which crimes have been committed in neighbourhoods across the capital. Crime information can be shown on a map, shaded to show crime rates in each area compared to the average across London. The crime statistics are obtained from the Home Office and the population data has been taken from the 2001 census. The data is displyed using the Google Maps API.
