#The inner London Boroughs are Brent, Camden, Greenwich, Hackney, Hammersmith & Fulham, Islington, Kensington & Chelsea, Lambeth, Lewisham, Newham, Southwark,

Tower Hamlets, Wandsworth, Westminster and ranked in descending order i.e. from highest crime to lowest crime rate per 1000 population.

* Baseline figures have been adjusted to take into account the change in Home Office counting rules of recorded crime, i.e. figures in the financial year 1997/98 have been increased by 14%.

§ It should be noted that the MPS PIB archive data relating to repeat burglary victimisation for the FY 1997/98 PIB archive is not complete as this information was not officially collated at that time.
