The question of how Amble’s crime data compares to that of Warkworth requires a careful look at the available figures. Currently, we have data for Amble, a Built-Up Area (BUA) in Northumberland with a population of 6484. Amble’s crime rate stands at 100.3 incidents per 1,000 residents. To contextualise this, the United Kingdom’s average crime rate is 91.6 per 1,000 people. Therefore, Amble’s crime rate is slightly higher than the national average.
Unfortunately, we do not currently have crime data for Warkworth to enable a direct comparison. Without that information, it’s impossible to definitively state whether Warkworth's crime rate is higher, lower, or similar to Amble’s. It's crucial to remember that crime rates are just one indicator of safety and don't necessarily reflect the overall quality of life in a community.
Amble’s safety score is 79 out of 100. Interestingly, this is identical to the UK average safety score of 79. This suggests that, despite the slightly elevated crime rate, residents of Amble may still perceive the area as relatively safe, or that other factors contributing to overall safety are mitigating the impact of the higher crime rate. These factors could include strong community ties, effective policing, or low levels of violent crime.
It's important to note that crime rates can fluctuate and are influenced by numerous variables, including population density, socioeconomic factors, and reporting practices. The figures provided are a snapshot in time and shouldn’t be interpreted as an absolute reflection of long-term trends. Further investigation, including looking at specific crime types and trends over time, would be necessary to gain a more complete understanding of the safety landscape in both Amble and Warkworth.
