The question of what specific types of violent crime are reported in Newton-with-Scales is unfortunately not directly addressed by the available data. However, we can analyse the overall context of crime statistics for the area. Newton-with-Scales, classified as a Built-Up Area (BUA) within Fylde, has a recorded crime rate of 68.0 incidents per 1,000 residents. This is notably lower than the UK average of 91.6 incidents per 1,000 residents.
While the specific types of violent crime are not listed, the lower crime rate suggests a generally safer environment compared to the national picture. The area’s safety score is 84 out of 100, again exceeding the UK average of 79. A higher safety score indicates a perceived lower risk of crime and a greater sense of security among residents.
It’s important to remember that crime data can be complex. The reported crime rate is based on recorded incidents, and doesn't necessarily reflect the full picture of criminal activity, as some crimes go unreported. Furthermore, the nature of violent crime is varied, and the data doesn’t provide a breakdown of the specific categories, such as assaults, robbery, or harassment. Further investigation into local police reports or community safety initiatives would be needed to ascertain a more granular view of the violent crime landscape in Newton-with-Scales. The population of Newton-with-Scales is 1485, which contributes to a lower overall number of reported incidents when calculating the crime rate per 1,000 residents.
