Overall Crime Rate Of 64.4 Crimes Per 1000 People
A quaint town that feeds into the larger cities of Bath and Bristol, Yate’s biggest attractions for those outside the town are its bustling shopping centre and local amenities. Plus, with a crime rate that’s below the regional average at 64.4 crimes per 1000 residents, it’s got its undoubted benefits.
However, that’s not to say Yate is issue-free. Substantial figures across both violent crime (672 offences) and antisocial behaviour (345 offences) are the key concerns, but a rising rate of robbery (16 offences) is a pressing problem, especially as it’s more than 50% higher than the county average.
