Overall Crime Rate Of 49.6 Crimes Per 1000 People
Falkirk’s extensive and storied history encompasses everything from pivotal battles to Scotland’s largest hub for the Industrial Revolution, but more recently it’s taken up a mantle as one of the country’s leading centres for the retail and service industry. Plus, with a lower than average crime rate of 49.6 crimes per 1000 residents, Falkirk’s appeal goes beyond its shops.
That rate does, however, encompass high figures across road traffic offences (2984 incidents), violent crime (2285 incidents) and crimes of dishonesty (2218 incidents), all of which highlight the need for effective security in Falkirk.
