The question of whether specific areas within Ramsey Island (BUA - Ramsey Island in Maldon) are more prone to criminal damage is a valid concern for residents. Based on available data, Ramsey Island has a population of 1928 people. The crime rate within Ramsey Island is recorded as 60.2 incidents per 1,000 residents. This is lower than the United Kingdom average of 91.6 incidents per 1,000 residents. The area also boasts a safety score of 83 out of 100, which is above the UK average of 79.
It's important to understand what these figures mean. A lower crime rate than the national average suggests Ramsey Island is generally a safer area. However, a crime rate of 60.2 per 1,000 residents still indicates that criminal activity does occur. The safety score of 83/100 further reinforces a perception of relative safety but doesn’t eliminate the potential for incidents.
Unfortunately, the data doesn’t specify which areas within Ramsey Island experience higher rates of criminal damage. This type of granular detail is often not publicly available due to privacy concerns and the complexities of data collection.
