Tockwith Crime Timing

Crime in Tockwith follows very distinct temporal patterns, especially regarding vehicle crime. Theft is most common during the morning (37%) and afternoon (51%), likely involving opportunistic incidents in residential areas. However, vehicle crime becomes the dominant threat as the day progresses, accounting for 43% of evening incidents and a massive 73% of incidents between midnight and 6am. Burglary remains a very low but consistent threat throughout the day and night. This data suggests that while daytime is prone to general theft, the night-time hours in Tockwith are almost exclusively focused on vehicle-related offences, highlighting the need for robust overnight car security.

scOS spots trouble the moment it starts — your lights come on, sirens sound, and you get an alert on your phone. Burglars don't stick around when they've lost the element of surprise.

Local Comparison

Tockwith's crime rate of 53.1 per 1,000 is lower than the urban Harrogate built-up area (76.0) but higher than immediate rural neighbours. Villages such as Long Marston, Green Hammerton, and Whixley all report 0.0 crimes per 1,000 people, representing an exceptionally high standard of safety. However, Tockwith is significantly safer than Thorp Arch, which has a much higher rate of 133.5 per 1,000. This suggests that Tockwith sits in a middle ground—busier than its smallest neighbours but far more secure than larger commercial or industrial hubs in the vicinity.

Vehicle and Home Security in Tockwith

With vehicle crime accounting for 10.5% of incidents in Tockwith, residents should prioritise proactive security measures.

The system's multi-camera intelligence can identify suspicious activity around your vehicles the moment it begins and can autonomously respond with lights and audio alerts. This immediate deterrence is vital for preventing theft before an intruder can even touch your property.
