The question of what community safety initiatives are in place in Ironville, a Built-Up Area (BUA) within Amber Valley, is a valid concern for residents. While specific, detailed initiatives are not explicitly outlined in available data, we can assess the area’s safety profile based on provided statistics. Ironville has a population of 1463 and, as of the data available, exhibits a crime rate of 73.1 incidents per 1,000 residents. This is lower than the UK average of 91.6 per 1,000.
Importantly, the violent crime rate in Ironville stands at 35.5 per 1,000 residents. While this figure requires further contextualization – understanding the types of violent crime included is crucial – it’s a data point to consider when evaluating overall safety. The area’s safety score is 81/100, which is marginally better than the UK average of 79/100. This composite score likely takes into account factors beyond just crime rates, potentially including perceptions of safety and community cohesion.
Unfortunately, the data doesn't specify the particular community safety initiatives currently operational in Ironville. However, as part of Amber Valley, residents benefit from broader Derbyshire Constabulary services and any initiatives they implement within the district. These could include neighbourhood watch schemes, community policing programs, and crime prevention campaigns. It’s recommended that residents engage with the Derbyshire Constabulary website for information about these broader initiatives and any local updates. Furthermore, actively participating in community groups and reporting any suspicious activity to the police are valuable contributions to local safety. It is also important to note that safety scores and crime rates are dynamic and can change over time.
