London Newham

Name: Crimes per 1,000 residents by neighbourhood, Newham, Q1 2023 to Q2 2026
Creator: CrimesLog

28 neighbourhoods - a quarterly race to the lowest crime rate.

Crime Trends: Neighbourhoods compared - each quarter from Q1 2023

London as a whole averaged 28.0 crimes for every 1,000 residents per quarter in Q2 2026, while Newham averaged 30.2 (leaving out 1 place with almost no residents), hence it is generally less safe when all crimes are considered.

How do the 28 neighbourhoods of Newham compare? In Q2 2026 the police recorded 11,572 crimes across them, 30.2 for every 1,000 residents. That is 2.8% above a year earlier and 24.7% above Q1 2023, the first quarter we track.

Pontoon Dock has the lowest rate of the everyday neighbourhoods (15.7 per 1,000), followed by Woodgrange Park (16.0) and Wanstead Park (18.2). Stratford International has the highest (76.7).

A little history

Newham in London. London's ancient core, the City of London, was founded by the Romans as Londinium, and the city grew rapidly in the 19th century. Newham, created in 1965 from the Essex county boroughs of West Ham and East Ham, takes its name from the compass points of those old names. It lies east of the City of London, north of the River Thames, between the River Lea and the North Circular Road.

Notable neighbourhoods in Newham include:

Beckton and Canning Town. Beckton, beside the Thames, was unpopulated marshland known as the East Ham Levels until 19th-century industry brought housing for workers at the Beckton Gas Works and Sewage Treatment Works. Between 1981 and 1995 it was in the London Docklands Development Corporation area, and the Docklands Light Railway was built. Canning Town lies north of the Royal Victoria Dock, whose creation largely drove its urbanisation.

Upton Park and East Ham. Upton Park is centred on Green Street, the boundary between West Ham and East Ham. West Ham United formerly played at the Boleyn Ground, commonly known as Upton Park. East Ham lies within the historic county of Essex and is identified in the London Plan as a Major Centre.

Reported Safety Incidents

In Q2 2026: violent incidents were 36% (4,150), property incidents were 31% (3,577), public order incidents were 23% (2,639) and vehicle crimes were 10% (1,206).

Recorded crime here is grouped into violent crime, property crime (burglary and theft), vehicle crime and public order offences, so you can compare how safe each neighbourhood is for the kind of crime that matters to you.

Places we left out, and places to read with care

Left out: Little Ilford. They have almost no residents: their crimes are against visitors, so a rate per resident says little about living there.

Cyprus (62.5 per 1,000 from 66 crimes among 1,056 residents), Royal Albert (56.3 per 1,000 from 92 crimes among 1,634 residents), London City Airport (39.8 per 1,000 from 94 crimes among 2,362 residents), Beckton Park (14.2 per 1,000 from 40 crimes among 2,826 residents) and Royal Docks (57.3 per 1,000 from 170 crimes among 2,967 residents) are places with few residents (under 3,000): a rate on so few people says little about living there, so they are not named as the lowest or highest.

Rates are recorded crimes per 1,000 residents, quarter by quarter; where a neighbourhood has fewer than 100 residents the rate would be worked out on 100 (those places are left out of the race). A count of recorded crime is not a verdict on any neighbourhood.
