Llanishen ward · Cardiff. Every figure carries its own date.
Boundary: May 2026. Census and crime records have different dates and purposes.
What makes this ward different?
Homes rented privately: 15% here, compared with 24% across Cardiff (9 percentage points lower).
A larger private-rented sector changes the mix of housing advice, enforcement and tenant support needed. It does not tell us whether individual homes are affordable or safe.
21 March 2021 · ward and council use the same source, measure and date.
Why this comparison is valid
The difference is in percentage points. The wider figure is the published council total, not the average of its wards. Differences describe groups, not every resident.
People aged 65 or over: 20.9% here, compared with 14.5% across Cardiff (6.4 percentage points higher).
Age helps locate demand for accessible homes, transport and support. Being older does not itself mean someone needs care.

People reporting bad or very bad health: 7.3% here, compared with 5.9% across Cardiff (1.4 percentage points higher).
Residents described their own health. Differences in age matter, so this is a prompt to investigate needs, not a score for local health services.

What these numbers include
Approximate published locations, not every crime or personal risk.
Anti-social behaviour is separate. Transport police and records without usable locations are excluded.
Do not compare directly with Scottish council-level recorded crime totals.
These are retrieved mapped records, not a guarantee of complete crime reporting. Approximate locations and unmapped incidents limit comparisons.
Missing ward-months invalidate totals and changes. Busy centres attract visitors, so residential population is not a measure of the number of people exposed.
