dont forget nottingham has one of the lowest detection rates in the country and hence should have a even higher crime rate


comapre the city with any deprived city and it pretty much has much higher crime than any other,bar perhaps london
compare nottingham with manchester and its also bad

Get over it. Nottingham is awesome. These threads are getting so tiresome.

PMSL!

Sorry, I find that hilariously funny since I come from the roughest area of Stoke-on-Trent and moved to Radford.

I gotta say, I feel *FAR* safer in Radford than I did in Stoke. Radford is a MUCH nicer area, has a better feel, and I don't know of any crime that's gone on in my area - though I've heard people in Lenton, Beeston, university park, etc, all complaining about crime. Nobody yet in Radford.. everyone I know here says they feel safe.

Out of curiosity, why compare it with s-o-t?

face it you are far more likely to get mugged in nottingham than stoke,admit it and move on

crime rates dont lie epsecially how nottingham is not just slightly worse in crime to stoke its far worse,go ahead,compare the two cities yourself and see,

face it you are far more likely to get mugged in nottingham than stoke,admit it and move on

nottingham isn't losing out if you aren't here

No you're not. It's exactly the same...

Both have a figure for 'Violence Against the Person' of 33 offences per 1000 of population.

What exactly is the point you're trying to make, other than the fact you're a complete arse?

You said that you're more likely to be mugged in Notts. That's not the case - violence against the person are the same, 33-33. From experience (since I've lived in BOTH places), Stoke feels more threatening than Nottingham does, even to the locals. I've also found that people in NOttingham are far more friendly and honest - for example, today I had several people tell me that I'd left my keys in my motorbike. THey could have just hopped on it and left.

Vehicle theft doesn't have anything to do with 95% of students, who don't have vehicles. Burglary, robbery and household are only an issue for those not living in halls (within halls is a problem with the uni people, not the city in general) which is a small proportion.

Therefore, the only stats that matter to the people on this board are sexual offenses and violence against the person, which are equal.

studnets brings cars up(quite alot of them) and alot live in housing i.e dunkirk or lenton

Okay, normally I wouldn't resort to member bashing, but since you've resorted to blatant, mindless idiocy along the lines of 'you're a rubbish poster' - **** off and go back to your mental hospital, you thick pratt.

Maybe Trent students bring cars up, but UoN students don't, because we were specifically told that unless you're staff or disabled then you're HIGHLY unlikely to get a car parking space. The halls don't have adequate parking. And almost everyone I know is living in halls and not private accomodation, though that increases by year. Burglary is mostly only a problem for people without an alarm system, and if you don't have one then more fool you.

I lived in the worst part of Stoke-on-Trent, as I'm now living in the worst part of Nottingham, supposedly. I've been attacked many times in Stoke, been in hospital before because of it, had our windows broken three, four, five times a year, some of my friends have been raped multiple times, three cars ran into the side of our house last year, and people from Stoke are possibly the most unfriendly people I've ever met, aside from Londoners and the French. I spent eighteen years there making that deduction. Don't assume that your friend's word is god. That's one person. I'm talking about everyone I know from Stoke. The stats for mugging/violent crime speak for themselves - and like you said earlier, the stats tell all What the stats say is that you're equally likely to be mugged in either place. My personal experience is that Nottingham feels safer. Feels.
