Places we left out, and places to read with care
Left out: Albion; Ryders Green. They have almost no residents: their crimes are against visitors, so a rate per resident says little about living there.
Tat Bank (24.0 per 1,000 from 11 crimes among 458 residents), Swan Village (35.9 per 1,000 from 28 crimes among 780 residents), Greets Green (8.0 per 1,000 from 10 crimes among 1,246 residents), Brades Village (16.8 per 1,000 from 29 crimes among 1,730 residents) and Oldbury (193.3 per 1,000 from 347 crimes among 1,795 residents) are places with few residents (under 3,000): a rate on so few people says little about living there, so they are not named as the lowest or highest.
