Comparing these areas to others nearby highlights the variance within the region. Stilton has a significantly lower crime rate of 40.1 per 1,000 residents, and Folksworth and Holme (Huntingdonshire) report no recorded crime. These extremely low figures suggest these villages may offer a particularly safe environment.
It's crucial to remember that crime rates are just one indicator of safety. Factors such as the types of crimes reported, the effectiveness of local policing, and community engagement also play vital roles. This data reflects reported incidents, and doesn't necessarily account for unreported crimes. For a more complete understanding of safety in either Yaxley or Farcet, consider researching specific crime trends and contacting the local police force for further information and community safety initiatives.
