Last year there were 4,290 burglaries across Bristol, South Gloucestershire, and North Somerset according to hyper-local police neighbourhood crime figures. That was a 5.7 per cent rise from 4,059 in 2020-21.
Bristol City Centre suffered more burglaries than anywhere else in our area with 153, followed by Temple Meads and then St Pauls, all in Bristol. But when compared to the size of the population, residents living in Temple Meads were more at risk from burglars than any other neighbourhood in our area.
For every 1,000 residents living in that neighbourhood, there were around 14 burglaries, the highest rate in Bristol and the surrounding area. That was followed by Withywood (10 burglaries per 1,000 residents), and Henleaze (10 per 1,000 residents), both in Bristol.
