Overall Crime Rate Of 51.2 Crimes Per 1000 People
The Kirkcaldy Bay area offers some of the more sweeping views of the stunning Firth of Forth, as well as a central hub for its region Fife, attracting both residents and tourists in even numbers. However, with a crime rate that’s consistently stayed around the Scottish average at 51.2 crimes per 1000 residents, crime is still a pressing issue.
While exact figures are uncertain, the town faces substantial issues with its rates in road traffic offences, crimes of dishonesty, and violent crime, all of which require increased focus on security services in Kirkcaldy.
