Neighbours 'don't worry' about doors being unlocked in Nottingham's safest suburb

People have opened up about life in one of the safest areas of Nottingham - where "nothing happens if you leave your door unlocked". Wollaton has recorded the lowest number of crime reports across the city, latest data reveals.

The latest figures reveal this area was the safest neighbourhood overall in August with reports 64 crimes - of which 17 were reports of violence and sexual offences, according to Home Office data published on police.uk. There were also 12 reports of antisocial behaviour and nine reports of criminal damage and arson - leaving 26 reports of other types of crime. By contrast, West Bridgford - which had the highest figures in August - recorded 337 reports of crime.

Tina Stanley previously lived in Western Boulevard, and moved to Woodhall Road a couple of years ago. "My husband and I always wanted for my child to be at a good school so Wollaton is a good location," she said.
