5 Crime & Community Safety

www.walsall.gov.uk

Key Issues• Relatively low level of crime in the Area as a whole (with

crime across the borough currently at an all time low) but ‐with theft from motor vehicles the most frequently recorded crime

50

www.walsall.gov.uk

GeographyThe Area Partnership is within the Aldridge and Brownhills Police Sector

It is covered by the following 4 Police Neighbourhoods (which are coextensive with ward boundaries)• Aldridge North and Walsall Wood• Aldridge Central and South• Pheasey Park Farm• Streetly

There are three areas in Walsall that have been identified as priority areas for crime and community safety issues, based on an analysis of key datasets. These areas have been identified by a range of local partnership services as they experience a relatively high number of repeat incidents that create multiple demands. Whilst short and medium term plans and activity take place, a longer term partnership wide approach is seen as necessary to resolve key issues in these areas.

The Top 3 issues identified in the local area in wave 36 Perception of problems:

Respondents to the feeling the difference survey conducted by bmg research on behalf of West Midlands Police were asked to identify their top three issues in their locality. The graph on the left shows the top issues identified by respondents.

• Walsall residents hold perceptions that predominantly fall in line with the Force average and there has been no significant movements since Wave 35 in any of the key indicator measures.

• There is a clear divide by Constituency, with the most positive views held by residents in Aldridge Brownhills and Walsall South, and the least in Walsall North.

• Public confidence in the police is most likely to be increased if the local police are viewed to ‘deal with things that matter to communities’, ‘be relied on to be there when needed’, and ‘work with people in the community to improve neighbourhoods’.

Understanding Confidence Intervals (CI)

Below is an explanation of charts that include 95% confidence intervals (CI) to help you understand how to interpret their meanings.

The example chart shows Respiratory mortality per 1,000 population. The results relating to the AP for which this profile relates are coloured red.

The dotted line running through the chart shows the average rate of respiratory mortality across the whole of Walsall.

The Confidence Interval symbol I represents how sure we are in the actual result within a +/- margin of error at 95% CI .1. Statistically significantly higher:If the overall CI -/+ range lies entirely above comparison average line then the result is seen as statistically significantly higher than the borough average. Example #1 North Walsall.2. Statistically significantly lower If it lies entirely below the comparison average line then the result is seen as statistically significantly lower than the borough average. Example # 2 Chuckery.3. Within normal rangeIf the CI -/+ range crosses the average line at any point then the result is not seen as statistically significant but the actual result maybe still be higher or lower than the average. Example # 3 Moxley.NB in this example a lower rate is better, in some charts a higher rate is better.
