About PostcodeLens

What this is

PostcodeLens answers one question: what is this postcode actually like? Type any UK postcode and get crime trends, flood risk, and real sold house prices — from three official sources — on one plain-English page. It is free, requires no account, and works for any postcode you are curious about, not just ones attached to a live property listing.

Where the data comes from

• Crime — recorded incidents published by police.uk
• Flood risk — the Environment Agency’s long-term flood risk mapping
• House prices — HM Land Registry’s Price Paid records of actual sales

Where a figure is based on too little data to be reliable, the page says so rather than showing a misleading number. The full detail of how figures are aggregated, suppressed, and attributed is on the methodology page.

Who runs it

PostcodeLens is built and operated by AEDatum Ltd, a company registered in England and Wales. Registered company details are available on request.
