Places we left out, and places to read with care

Left out: Churchfield; Hall End; Hateley Heath; Langley Green; West Smethwick. They have almost no residents: their crimes are against visitors, so a rate per resident says little about living there.

Dudley Port (2.5 per 1,000 from 1 crime among 404 residents), Black Lake (12.0 per 1,000 from 12 crimes among 1,002 residents), Mayer's Green (88.7 per 1,000 from 93 crimes among 1,048 residents), Swan Village (45.4 per 1,000 from 55 crimes among 1,212 residents), The Hawthorns (24.5 per 1,000 from 31 crimes among 1,264 residents) and Lyndon (33.6 per 1,000 from 98 crimes among 2,916 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.
