About these figures
These are counts of published crime map records within a defined settlement boundary, not population-adjusted rates or a prediction of an individual property’s risk. Anti-social behaviour is separate. Anonymised locations and missing locations mean these counts can differ from official recorded-crime totals.
In August 2026, the published police map data contains 13 crimes within the Warrenpoint / Burren settlement boundary. The last 12 complete months total 306 mapped crimes. Anti-social behaviour is counted separately.

Crime data for Warrenpoint, your questions
Sources, geography and limitations
The map and monthly charts use the same named NISRA settlement boundary (2015). The postcode search is a separate 1-mile search around the selected address. Some places share a larger named settlement: the area label and map boundary make this explicit.
Annual council figures cover the full council area and use financial years. They cannot be directly compared with monthly settlement counts. Crime totals exclude anti-social behaviour.
Figures cover August 2026, the most recent month published by the police data service, not events happening today. Source publication checked 2 November 2026.
What area do these figures cover?
The monthly figures use the defined settlement area shown by the map boundary. Its official name is given with the report, because some boundaries include adjoining places. The postcode search uses a separate one-mile circle around the postcode you choose. Annual council figures cover the wider council area.
Are anti-social behaviour incidents included in the crime total?
No. The headline crime total, crime breakdown and monthly crime trend exclude anti-social behaviour. ASB incidents are shown separately and identified on the map. Both come from the published PSNI street-level dataset. Map locations are anonymised, and records without a usable location cannot be assigned to the settlement boundary.
What can these figures tell me about local safety?
They describe reports in the published data, not every crime that occurred or the risk to an individual property. Larger or busier places can record more incidents, so raw counts should not be used to rank places as safe or unsafe. Compare the same area over time, alongside the type of incident and the needs of your property. Read the crime-data methodology for the definitions and limitations.
Which policing team covers the town centre?
The town-centre location is covered by the PSNI Newry neighbourhood policing team. Other parts of the settlement may have different teams. Telephone 101, NewryMourneandDown@psni.pnn.police.uk, psni.police.uk. In an emergency always call 999; use 101 for non-emergencies.
