Crime Type and ASB Charts for Scarborough

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.

Neighbourhood Team

No police officers found

The team works alongside dedicated response teams within the town which consist of 47 Police Officers who patrol the town and provide the immediate response to calls from the public. In addition we work with local authorities (i.e. Licensing and Environmental departments), North Yorkshire County Council and Scarborough Borough Council (i.e. education, youth service, youth justice). My team also work with individuals within communities to reduce crime and improve the quality of life within the town. There are many voluntary groups and individuals the officers work with, alongside many residents such as 'friends of' groups and the Community and Police Groups.
