The question of whether specific areas within Holyhead are considered less safe requires a look at the available data. Holyhead, located in the Isle of Anglesey, has a population of 12,151. The overall crime rate for Holyhead (BUA) stands at 123.0 incidents per 1,000 residents. This is notably higher than the UK average of 91.6 incidents per 1,000.
It’s important to interpret this figure carefully. A higher crime rate doesn't automatically pinpoint specific 'unsafe' areas, but it does suggest a greater prevalence of reported crime within the town as a whole. The safety score for Holyhead is 71 out of 100, which is below the UK average of 79. This score reflects the collective perception of safety within the area, influenced by factors beyond just reported crime statistics.
Delving deeper, the violent crime rate in Holyhead is 53.1 incidents per 1,000 residents. While still above the national average (which isn't provided in the data), this figure provides a further insight into the types of crimes occurring. It's crucial to understand that crime statistics represent reported incidents and may not fully reflect the reality of safety experienced by residents.
Without more granular data, pinpointing specific 'less safe' areas within Holyhead is impossible. This data describes the town as a whole. It’s advisable to consult local police reports, community forums, and engage with local authorities for more detailed information about specific areas and ongoing safety initiatives. Always be mindful of your surroundings and report any suspicious activity to the relevant authorities.
