Crime and safety in North Mundham & Tangmere
Sussex Police did not provide crime data for January 2026 at the original publication. The checked changelog does not explicitly confirm a later crime-data refresh for that month. Published monthly records are retained, but annual totals, rates and year-on-year comparisons spanning that month are withheld pending confirmation. This does not mean the currently returned records are absent.
These are crimes with a published approximate location inside the ward. They do not measure every crime or your personal risk.

Categories and how to read these figures
Mapped police records only; approximate locations; excludes BTP and unmapped offences. ASB is separate. Rates use Census 2021 residents, not current residents, commuters or visitors. Not a measure of personal risk.
Not available mapped crimes per 1,000 people, using a 21 March 2021 population of 8,130. The population is a dated denominator, not an estimate of the number of people exposed to crime today.

What could change here?
These are chichester district responses. They are relevant context, not a claim that each service or project operates in this ward.
Weakness · Chichester district
Housing pressure reaches beyond house prices
Nightly-paid temporary accommodation held 106 households in June 2026. This is one part of temporary accommodation, not all homelessness.
The district also reported 160 affordable homes enabled in 2025/26 against a target of 167. Supply and immediate housing need require separate measures.
Evidence and related projects
Average home price: £432,000 · July 2026 · Chichester district. Buying a home remains a substantial cost. Provisional, not seasonally adjusted; district average, not a city valuation.
Average monthly rent: £1,333 · August 2026 · Chichester district. Average rent rose from £1,294 in August 2025 to £1,333 in August 2026: £39 more each month, or £468 over a year at that monthly difference. Covers the private rental market, not just newly advertised lets; individual rents vary.

Threat · Chichester district
Growth needs working water infrastructure
Housing delivery must keep pace with wastewater capacity and protection of the harbour.
Capacity, nutrient pollution and water supply are different constraints. Their boundaries differ; a district-wide label can mislead.

Weakness · Chichester district
District totals can conceal local changes
Police neighbourhood trends differ within Chichester. City-centre activity cannot be inferred from the district average.
Published police locations are approximate and omit unmapped incidents. Counts do not measure every crime or the risk to an individual.
