The question of whether crime data is available for specific neighbourhoods within Redhill is a common one. Currently, publicly accessible crime data is primarily reported at the BUA (Built-Up Area) level, which in this case refers to Redhill within the Reigate and Banstead borough. This means detailed breakdowns by smaller geographical units like individual neighbourhoods are not readily available online.
However, we can examine the overall crime statistics for Redhill to provide context. The population of Redhill (Reigate and Banstead) is 34,052. The crime rate for this area stands at 85.9 incidents per 1,000 residents. To put this in perspective, the UK national average crime rate is 91.6 incidents per 1,000 residents. This suggests that Redhill experiences a slightly lower level of crime compared to the national average.
Beyond the raw crime rate, the area’s safety score offers another data point. Redhill currently holds a safety score of 80 out of 100. The UK average safety score is 79 out of 100. A higher safety score indicates a perceived higher level of safety within the area. It's important to remember that safety scores are often based on a combination of factors, including reported crime statistics, resident perceptions, and environmental factors.
While this data doesn't provide insight into specific neighbourhood variations, it does offer a general understanding of the safety profile of Redhill as a whole. If you are concerned about safety in a particular area, contacting the local police or Reigate and Banstead Borough Council might yield more localised information, although this is not guaranteed. Understanding the broader context of crime statistics – taking into account population density, socioeconomic factors, and reporting practices – is crucial for accurate interpretation.
