The question of whether vehicle crime is more prevalent in specific areas of Bream is complex. While precise location-based data for vehicle crime alone isn't publicly available, we can analyse overall crime statistics and property crime rates to understand potential risks.
Bream in the Forest of Dean (BUA) has a population of 3242 and a general crime rate of 81.1 per 1,000 residents. This is slightly below the UK average of 91.6 per 1,000, suggesting that, overall, Bream is relatively safer than many areas in the country. Its safety score of 82/100 further supports this, exceeding the UK average of 79. However, this overall picture doesn't pinpoint specific hotspots for vehicle crime within Bream itself.
Crucially, the property crime rate in Bream stands at 14.8 per 1,000 residents. Vehicle crime falls under the umbrella of property crime, meaning that areas experiencing higher rates of property crime are more likely to see a corresponding rise in vehicle-related offences. While this doesn't identify specific streets or neighbourhoods, it highlights the importance of vigilance across the entire area.
It’s important to note that crime statistics are often aggregated and don’t always reveal granular details. Factors like the layout of the area, parking availability, and visibility can influence where vehicle crime occurs. Without more granular data, it's impossible to definitively state that certain areas within Bream are inherently more prone to vehicle crime. However, understanding the overall crime rate and property crime rate provides a useful context for personal safety and preventative measures. We recommend contacting Gloucestershire Constabulary for more localised information if you have specific concerns about a particular area of Bream.
