It turns out a study has revealed that Nottingham has four times as much crime as the safest cities. I'm not surprised, it's ful of oiks, chavs and Twokkers.

When I lived there it seemed like you couldn't go a week without hearing about a drive-by shooting.

What are the crime stats for it? and stats that have been compared to
other cities? It's interesting to hear exact numbers as opposed to just
having the general impression that one place is more dangerous than
another. I am surprised that london isn't the most dangerous
place?

I know what you mean, people think the south-west has less crime going on but actually Plymouth has one of the highest rates of drug possession in the UK!

Poole in Dorset came out of the poll as the second most safe place, with only 32.71 crimes per 100 population. The safest place is Southend.

Are we talking only serious crimes like murder, drug dealing and the like or any crime or any level?

The catagories included were:

Murder, rape, assault, robbery, burglary, vehicle crime and gun crime. Drugs offences are it seems not included in today's report.

Interestingly Plymouth came 38 out of 87. Birmingham is way safer at number 77.

Sounds very dubious to me. And I have a house in Poole!
