None of these appear.<br /><br />2 people have been murdered within 4 houses of us. No murders or violent crime shows up. <br /><br />The whole thing is a lie.Anonymouslemminghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04693377613554638959noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8377446.post-57395614979133520442011-02-02T12:31:49.057+00:002011-02-02T12:31:49.057+00:00I wonder if the insurance industry will use this i...I wonder if the insurance industry will use this information in much the same way they do the "flood" information from the enviroment agency. If one lives in a nice, low crime area but you have a bad area next to your area, because of the way the information is grouped, it is possible that the information could be distorted to justify putting insurance premiums up even more.<br />People that live in an area, tend to know whether there is a crime problem or not and they tend to know where, within an area, there is a likelyhood of being mugged for example, or where a nice parked car might be damaged by yobs. I do wonder what the point of this information actually is; my cynical side suspects it is a commercial venture by the police authorities to provide a resourse to insurers.....A nice little earner all round; kerching!!Tonk.noreply@blogger.com
