'Most dangerous areas' map reveals crime hot spots including near King Charles' residence

A 'most dangerous areas' map has revealed crime hotspots in England and Wales - including near King Charles' residency.

St James & Mayfair is the second most crime-ridden neighbourhood in England and Wales - and home to King Charles III. The high crime rate in that neighbourhood - which includes Buckingham Palace, the King’s official residence - is driven by the highest rates of violence and sexual offences, burglary, drug crime, and anti-social behaviour.

Only London’s fashionable Fitzrovia West & Soho neighbourhood is higher. More crimes were committed in than anywhere else in England and Wales - almost 28,000 separate offences. That is the equivalent to one act of crime every 19 minutes.
