Nottinghamshire named 18th most dangerous place in UK, ONS data shows

Nottinghamshire has been named the 18th most dangerous place to live in the UK, official figures suggest. New data from the Office for National Statistics (ONS) has revealed which are the worst places in the UK for crime.

And Nottinghamshire has claimed the 18th spot - with 88 crimes a year per 1,000 people. While many expected London and Greater Manchester to be the most crime-ridden areas in England and Wales, the northern county of Cleveland - which includes Hartlepool, Middlesbrough, Cleveland and Stockton-on-Tees - claimed the top spot, reports Hull Live.

But London does not even place in the top 10 most dangerous places to live in England, coming in 11th with 96 victim-based crimes per 1,000 people. However, it is the number one worst place for robbery and theft.
