Crime Type and ASB Charts for Newton Abbot Town

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.
Newton Abbot Town West has a population of over 11000 people in over 5000 properties. The Beat is based around the Bushell and Bradley Town Council wards. It is mainly urban, with the majority of residents living in Newton Abbot but the neighbourhood does include a number of villages and hamlets, including Highweek and Seale Hayne.
Much of the activity, commercial, social and policing is focused in the Town Centre area due to the concentration of shops and licensed premises.
Newton Abbot is a safe place to live with the likelihood of being a victim of crime being well below the national average. In addition the incidents of serious crime are very low indeed.
The main problems are spontaneous incidents of vandalism committed by those passing through the area. There are also problems with fear of crime. Some of this is created by differing views of what is acceptable causing relatively low level behaviour being interpreted as a significant threat.
