The most recent police data for 2024, which covers the period from January 1, 2024 to October 31, 2024 shows that the streets pictured here are the locations in the city where the largest number of crime reports were made.
The crime figures obtained from Police.uk – the national website for policing in England – and are released with a two-month delay, meaning these are the most up-to-date available.
They are based on reports made in South Yorkshire Police’s four Sheffield policing districts: Sheffield North East; Sheffield Central and North West; Sheffield South East and Sheffield South West.
The police.uk data states that the crimes have been reported ‘on or near’ a specific street or location.
Shoplifting is when goods are taken without payment from a place that members of the public has access to.
If a person has entered an area that members of the public do not have access to, and items have been stolen, this would be classified as a burglary.
Call South Yorkshire Police on 101 to report a crime.
In an emergency, call 999.
