Residents of a Nottinghamshire village have praised its 'close-knit' nature after it was named as one of the safest areas in the county. Tollerton was ranked joint-lowest in terms of instances of antisocial behaviour across 2021/22, according to police figures.
The village, alongside other Rushcliffe areas such as Cropwell Bishop, Kinoulton and Keyworth North, recorded just 4.5 incidents per 1,000 residents. Rachel Hughes, who runs the Air Hostess pub in the centre of the village, said the tightness of its residents was the main reason.
"It's a lovely area with lots of nice people, it's a real massive community," the 50-year-old told Nottinghamshire Live. "You see the kids out on the streets, it's nice to see them on their bikes. You see a lot going round but not in a threatening way - there's never any trouble.
