Neighbours have shared why they love living in their Nottinghamshire area, with the lowest number of crimes reported in Nottinghamshire. Recent Police UK crime statistics show there were 173 reports of crime between March 2022 and March 2023 in the geographic boundary, as grouped by the data, that encompasses Tollerton, Willoughby and Keyworth North, in Rushcliffe.
This equates to 29 reports of crime for every 1,000 people in the area. This is the lowest rate for neighbourhoods across the county as well as one of the lowest in England and Wales out of thousands of neighbourhoods.
Many residents who we spoke to in Tollerton explained that the village had a prominent neighbourhood watch scheme and strong sense of community, which they felt could be playing a part in why the area remains a safe place to live and work. Retired Mike Owen, 62, has lived in the village for around 20 years.
