Geoff:
In the first chapter of HBP ("The Other minister") the discussion between 
Fudge and the British PM includes a reference to the murders of Amelia 
Bones and Emmeline Vance. The PM knows abut these murders which 
have been investigated by the police; the former certainly appeared to 
live in a Muggle district. (p.19 UK edition)

Then Scrimgeour reveals in his conversation that Kingsley Shacklebolt 
is one of the Prime Minister's secretaries, which implies that, even if he 
doesn't live in Muggle London, he must be in and out very frequently.
(ibid. pp.22/23)
