Source: data.police.uk · ONS population estimates. Rates use resident population, so busy centres with few residents score higher than it may feel. Scores are a guide, not an official rating. The police force published 11 of the last 12 months in full, so the latest year is estimated from those months, adjusted for seasonal patterns across England and Wales.
