Crime Type and ASB Charts for Honiton Rural

In September 2011, Other Crime was divided into 6 categories - Drugs, Public Disorder & Weapons (which was later split further and so is not displayed here), Criminal Damage & Arson (CD&A), Theft - Shoplifting, Theft-Other and Other.
From May 2013, the following changes were made to the crime categories:
I) The violent crime category was renamed "violence and sexual offences"
2) A new category for "bicycle theft" was created which previously fell within "other theft"
3) A new category for "theft from the person" was created which previously fell within "other theft"
4) Public disorder and weapons were then split into two new categories; "public order" and "possession of weapons"
5) Both "other firearms offences" and "other knives offences" which were in "other crime" were moved into "possession of weapons".
The Economic Policy Centre www.economicpolicycentre.com has made every effort in order to ensure that the data for UkCrimeStats is accurate and up to date. However, we are aware of certain deficiencies in this data which are beyond our control. That's because as a 3rd party developer, we do not collect the data, the Police do who then hand it over to another data company to release to 3rd party developers such as ourselves. We only download and analyse it so that you can use it. For full detail of these deficiencies, please read here.
The rural area of Honiton includes 15 Parishes (Awliscombe, Broadhembury, Buckerell, Combe Raleigh, Cotleigh, Dunkeswell, Gittisham, Luppitt, Monkton, Offwell, Payhembury, Plymtree, Sheldon, Upottery and Yarcombe) which consists of 23 villages. It covers an area of approximately 300 sq km and houses a population of around 10,000. The area has four main trunk roads – the A30, A35, A373 and the A375. Some of the parishes to the north and west share their boundaries with the Mid Devon district and parishes to the east, with Somerset.
The villages are interspersed by agriculture and Dunkeswell contains the main nucleus of population. The housing is varied, but in the main it is owner-occupied with local authority and housing association properties in some areas; as well as some privately rented properties. A large number of these residents commute to Honiton, Taunton and Exeter for employment.
The general wealth and wellbeing of the area reflects the national economic health of the country. Crime shows no serious tendencies but has been the target of organised burglary, mainly of outbuildings and sheds used for machinery, garden equipment and power tools.
