Hollingdean & Fiveways ward · Brighton and Hove. Every figure carries its own date.
Boundary: May 2026. Census and crime records have different dates and purposes.
What makes this ward different?
Homes rented privately: 19% here, compared with 33% across Brighton and Hove (13.5 percentage points lower).
A larger private-rented sector changes the mix of housing advice, enforcement and tenant support needed. It does not tell us whether individual homes are affordable or safe.

Crime categories in the latest complete year
A complete, consecutive 12-month period without an unresolved reporting break is needed before these totals can be shown.
What these numbers include
Approximate published locations, not every crime or personal risk.
Anti-social behaviour is separate. Transport police and records without usable locations are excluded.
Do not compare directly with Scottish council-level recorded crime totals.
These are retrieved mapped records, not a guarantee of complete crime reporting. Approximate locations and unmapped incidents limit comparisons.
Publication history: Sussex Police: Crime data not provided for January 2026. The force will provide a data refresh as soon as possible. No explicit later refresh identified in the checked changelog.
Previous crime-publication gaps are not explicitly resolved in the checked changelog for 2026-01. Published rows are retained, but completeness and year-on-year changes are not established.
Missing ward-months invalidate totals and changes. Busy centres attract visitors, so residential population is not a measure of the number of people exposed.
