GREATER Manchester saw some of the highest rates of racial and religious hate crimes recorded across the country last year. But despite historically high levels across the country, some communities fear many incidents are still not being reported to police.
In total, 5,520 hate crimes were recorded in Greater Manchester last year around 3 per cent less than the year before. However, at 333.2 incidents per 100,000 people, Manchester saw the second highest rate of hate crimes recorded in England and Wales in 2023.
With 1,896 offences last year, the city saw a 1 per cent increase in hate crimes, while in Oldham, the number of incidents rose by 16 per cent to 443. Salford and Rochdale saw the number of hate crimes fall, but the rate still remains high at around 200 per 100,000 people.
