About these figures

Dowgate has a small residential population (1,619 residents). Crime data is recorded against where crimes occur, but rates are expressed per 1,000 residents. In commercial and mixed-use areas with high daytime footfall the per-1,000 figures will appear much higher than in residential areas. Absolute crime counts are the more useful comparison here.

Security advice for terraced houses

1

Terraced homes are typically most vulnerable at the front door and any rear access via a back alley or shared yard. Rear door and alley gate sensors are a priority.

2

Because terraced houses are closely spaced, a loud sounder can alert multiple neighbours quickly, making monitored alarms highly effective.

3

Slim-profile alarm panels fit well in hallways and are unobtrusive in period terraced properties.
