About these figures

Eastgate has a small residential population (2,553 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.
