REVEALED: The areas of Peterborough with the highest violent and sexual crime rates

The areas of Peterborough with the highest rates for violent and sexual crime have been revealed.

Data from Police UK has revealed which wards in the city have the highest number of violent and sexual offences per 1,000 people.

Violent crime includes a selection of National Crime Reporting System codes used in the British Crime Survey (BCS) where the offence is directly against a person, but excludes driving and less direct actions (like conspiracy or possession of weapons) and also excludes other offences like cruelty/neglect or abandonment of a child, or assault on a constable.

Here, the wards are listed in reverse order, with the areas with the lowest rates listed first.
