The question of what specific statistics exist regarding violence and sexual offences in Shippon is a valid one, and understanding the data is crucial for assessing community safety. Located in the Vale of White Horse, Shippon is a BUA (Built-Up Area) with a population of 1940. Overall, the crime rate in Shippon stands at 58.2 incidents per 1,000 residents. This is notably lower than the UK national average of 91.6 incidents per 1,000 residents.
It's important to understand that while the overall crime rate is lower, specific categories like violence and sexual offences are still recorded. Unfortunately, the data available does not provide a breakdown of specific figures for violence and sexual offences within Shippon. The provided data only offers the aggregate crime rate. However, the area's safety score of 86 out of 100 suggests a generally safe environment, significantly higher than the UK average of 79. This safety score likely reflects a combination of factors including the lower crime rate and perceptions of safety within the community.
While we cannot provide precise numbers for violence and sexual offences, the lower overall crime rate and high safety score suggest that these incidents are likely occurring at a lower frequency than in areas with higher crime rates. It's crucial to remember that crime statistics are not always a complete picture and can be influenced by reporting rates and other factors. For more detailed information and to report any concerns, residents should consult the Vale of White Horse District Council website and local police services. Further investigation into the specific types of crimes reported within Shippon would require accessing more granular datasets, which are not available within the provided data.
