Score 15/100. This is an LSOA incident-count proxy, not a population-adjusted crime rate.
How Life Works Here
Merton Street is located in Swindon. The associated LSOA area has 383 recorded incidents from 2025-08 to 2026-07. Incident rows were observed in 12 of the 12 selected months.

No nearby amenity records are available in this extract. Recorded nearby transport modes: rail and bus. The nearest mapped stop (Bus Station) is 56m away. Check current routes and service frequency with the operator. The price sample is too small to publish a median; at least eight recorded transactions are required.
