AN Argus investigation today reveals the most crime-ridden streets in Brighton and Hove.
Police figures show which parts of the city have the highest number of crime reports.
The data covers crimes reported in more than 1,500 streets in the city and is taken from official police statistics.
Crimes are reported as happening “in or near” a street.
The figures are taken from September 2018 to August this year.

A Sussex Police spokeswoman said: “We always care about crime levels and monitor them closely.
“We recognise that different areas will have different patterns of crime in terms of the number and type reported, for a host of reasons including population density, mix of commercial and residential premises, geographical location, and socio-economic factors, and these patterns change over time.”

The Sussex Police spokeswoman added: "We need to bear in mind that there are some offences where we want increased reporting – not because we want more crime, but because we know that historically we haven’t seen the whole picture, in areas including hate crime, domestic abuse and human trafficking and others – the so called ‘hidden crimes’.
“We continually review what we understand about levels of crime and disorder in the city, based on reported crime numbers but also on intelligence reports and analysis.
"Importantly we look at feedback from local communities and the professional judgement of the officers who work most closely with them. Our Prevention teams spearhead this work.
"Under our Local Policing model we make sure they spend as much time as possible working on the problems in their local areas, and the council tax increase has allowed increased resourcing for these teams.
"Where we identify a problem, we work with partners, taking a problem-solving approach to try and tackle the root causes and achieve long-term improvements, focusing our efforts where we see the greatest potential for harm."
