Residents in an affluent area of Nottingham say they are largely unworried about burglaries as new data suggested a rise in the crime in the last year. Trent Bridge - along with the city centre - makes up part of the area in Nottinghamshire with the most burglaries in the last year.
"I'm not really worried though," she said. An anonymous mum-of-two said she felt "relatively safe" despite the statistics. "I suppose we're quite close to areas that aren't quite as affluent," she said. One resident who expressed little surprise was Sarah Bell, who said two cars had been stolen from her drive in the space of weeks around two years ago.
The neighbourhoods suffering more burglaries after The City Centre and Trent Bridge were the Arboretum, Forest, Trent University in Nottingham, and West Bridgford in Rushcliffe. Additionally, when compared to the population size, residents in The City Centre and Trent Bridge were also more at risk from burglars than any other Nottinghamshire neighbourhood.
