How it works
One lookup. Several honest geographic levels.
A postcode is a route to evidence, not a claim that every dataset describes that exact street.
Join official evidence
Present only held data with a recorded publication basis.
Keep limits visible
Dates, denominators, geographic levels and gaps remain beside the figure.
Evidence ledger
Sources are part of the answer.
UK Place Check is independent and is not endorsed by the named public bodies. Official source links and current coverage limits stay visible.

Method before ranking
There is no “best place” number.
A combined score would hide value judgements and mix unlike geographies. The product keeps measures separate, labels missing joins as gaps rather than zero, and never treats a dated inspection as a guarantee.
