Crime Type and ASB Charts for Dartmouth Townstal & 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 Townstal area has a population of approximately 2,500. The population in Townstal is varied, with a mix of elderly people, retired people and families with young children.
The neighbourhood that I cover also includes the rural villages of Slapton, Strete, Stoke Fleming, Blackawton, Dittisham and Cornworthy.
Slapton is renowed for its beautiful Slapton Ley National Nature Reserve and the ill-fated Exercise Tiger that took place on 28th April 1944 during which, over 900 American servicemen lost their lives. There area around Slapton boasts stunning natural beauty, peace and tranquility.
In Townstal there are a number of small businesses based centrally in industrial units and three schools are located on the outskirts. The area is also serviced by three supermarkets, a garage, a post office and a sports centre.
Townstal is a safe place to live with the likelihood of being a victim of crime falling well below the national average. Incidents of serious crime are very low indeed.
