Greater Manchester Police doesn’t publish street-level crime to police.uk, and in 2026 it said it had no date to resume. Without it we can’t count crimes inside Wingates’s boundary, so Wingates has no Safety Grade and no overall grade.
Where to look instead
- Greater Manchester. The Home Office publishes police-recorded crime for each Community Safety Partnership (one per borough), and Greater Manchester Police publishes its own borough figures. Both count every crime in the whole borough, not inside the town, so they aren’t comparable with the town figures on other UK pages and we don’t use them to grade.

No one died in a collision on Wingates’s roads in 2021–2025
Police recorded 9 collisions with injuries inside Wingates in five years. 1 person was killed or seriously injured: 0 on foot and 0 on a bicycle.
Most UK towns of 1,000 to 2,500 people (94%) had no road deaths in these five years, and Wingates is one of them.
Counting serious injuries too, a town of Wingates’s size at the median for UK towns of 1,000 to 2,500 people would see about 1 people killed or seriously injured in five years; Wingates had 1.
Casualties are counted where the collision happened, not where people lived: a main road through town adds through-traffic, and residents’ own risk on roads elsewhere isn’t here. Seriously injured uses the Department for Transport’s adjusted figures, which even out the police forces’ different ways of recording injuries. There’s no national rate here: more than half of road deaths in England and Wales (58%) happen outside every town’s built-up area. Source: DfT road casualty statistics (STATS19), 2021–2025.
Collisions police recorded inside Wingates’s built-up area, 2021–2025. Described here; not part of the Safety Grade.
Questions
Is Wingates safe?
We can’t say from police.uk: Greater Manchester Police doesn’t publish street-level crime data there, so Wingates has no Safety Grade. Greater Manchester Police’s own figures cover whole boroughs, not towns.
