The primary concerns regarding violence and sexual offences in Caythorpe, a Built-Up Area (BUA) in South Kesteven, stem from the nature of these crimes and their impact on individuals and the community. While Caythorpe enjoys a relatively low overall crime rate, the specific types of offences reported are understandably cause for concern.
Data indicates that Caythorpe's crime rate stands at 43.1 incidents per 1,000 residents. This is considerably lower than the UK average of 91.6 incidents per 1,000 residents. The population of Caythorpe is 1832, meaning approximately 79 incidents were reported within the area. This doesn't inherently mean these are exceptionally high; it’s the type of incident that generates worry. While specific details regarding the frequency of violence and sexual offences within this total are not provided, the reporting of any such crimes warrants attention and preventative measures.
Importantly, Caythorpe boasts a safety score of 91/100, significantly surpassing the UK average of 79. This suggests that residents generally perceive the area as safe, and that other factors contributing to safety are strong. However, the presence of violence and sexual offences, even in small numbers, highlights the need for continued vigilance and proactive community engagement. It's important to remember that crime statistics represent reported incidents; the actual number of incidents may be higher due to underreporting. Further investigation and community awareness programs focusing on prevention and support for victims of these crimes would be beneficial to maintaining the area's high safety score and addressing resident concerns.
