Official figures have revealed the parts of Sheffield which are seeing the most reports of drug-related crime.
The statistics are based on police figures, drawn from 70 neighbourhoods which make up Sheffield, and are based on reports to police of incidents between September 2025 and August 2026.
They show the 12 month total of neighbourhood-level incidents of drug crime, and as a rate per 1,000 residents, and we have ranked them by that.
We have also listed the total number of incidents for each area.
The figures are based on where the incidents occurred, not where they were reported from.
We have listed the 17 neighbourhoods in the city with the largest number of drug crimes in the gallery below, with the smaller number of cases per person at top, and the area with the largest number listed last.
