This relatively low crime rate contributes to Water Orton’s impressive safety score of 88 out of 100, significantly exceeding the UK average safety score of 79. The safety score likely reflects a combination of factors, including lower crime statistics and potentially a strong sense of community and vigilance among residents. It's important to remember that crime rates are complex and influenced by various socioeconomic factors. While these statistics provide a snapshot of the situation, they shouldn't be taken as definitive indicators of absolute safety. Reporting any suspicious activity to the authorities remains crucial in maintaining a safe and secure environment for everyone in Water Orton and North Warwickshire.
