| Supermarket | 39 |
| Parking Area | 26 |
| Pasteur Close | 14 |
| Edgware Road High Street | 13 |
| Long Mead | 12 |

| Capitol Way | 9 |
| Symphony Close | 9 |

How to read these figures
These are offences recorded by the Metropolitan Police, not offences committed. A rise can mean more crime, better reporting, or a change in how something is classified, and anti-social behaviour in particular reflects how often people call it in. Figures for one month in one area are a small sample: treat a change of a handful of offences as noise rather than a trend.
