About UK Police
The UK Police API is a JSON web service providing access to street-level crime and outcome data, stop and search records, and policing organizational information for England, Wales, and Northern Ireland. It supports HTTP GET and POST requests and returns data on crime categories, crime outcomes, and stop and search activity broken down by area, location, or force.
Beyond crime data, the API exposes information about police forces themselves, including force listings, senior officer details, and neighbourhood policing teams. It also provides neighbourhood-level data such as team members, boundaries, upcoming events, and priorities, along with a lookup to locate the neighbourhood covering a given point.
The documentation covers authentication, call limits, and the full set of available methods, making the API suited for developers building applications or analyses that require access to public UK policing and crime statistics.
