Gilfach has a small residential population (1,995 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
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.
Because terraced houses are closely spaced, a loud sounder can alert multiple neighbours quickly, making monitored alarms highly effective.
Slim-profile alarm panels fit well in hallways and are unobtrusive in period terraced properties.
