The question of whether specific areas within Chapel-en-le-Frith experience a disproportionate prevalence of violence and sexual offences is complex to answer definitively with the available data. The data provided relates to the entire Built-up Area (BUA) of Chapel-en-le-Frith, encompassing the entire urban area within High Peak. It doesn't isolate crime statistics by smaller geographical units such as specific neighbourhoods or streets.
Considering the overall picture, Chapel-en-le-Frith has a crime rate of 51.5 incidents per 1,000 residents. This is significantly lower than the United Kingdom's average crime rate of 91.6 per 1,000. This suggests that, on the whole, Chapel-en-le-Frith is a relatively safe place. The area also boasts a safety score of 87 out of 100, which is considerably higher than the UK average of 79, further reinforcing this observation.
It's important to note that while the overall crime rate is lower, variations can still exist within the BUA. Factors such as population density, local amenities, and socio-economic conditions can influence crime rates in different parts of the area. However, without more granular data broken down by smaller geographical areas, it is impossible to pinpoint specific locations where violence and sexual offences are more prevalent.
Furthermore, the data doesn’t specify the types of crimes included in the overall figure. It is possible that certain types of crime, like theft or minor offences, contribute more to the overall rate than violent or sexual offences.
To gain a more detailed understanding, residents could consider engaging with local community groups, attending parish council meetings, and reviewing publicly available crime mapping tools (if available from Derbyshire Constabulary) which might offer more localised information. Contacting Derbyshire Constabulary directly may also provide further insights, although they may not be able to disclose specifics due to privacy and operational reasons.
