Local Crime and Road Collision Statistics

Johnstone South, Elderslie and Howwood Community Policing Team Area

The following statistics have been provided to give you information on reported crime, anti social behaviour and road collisions in this area. The information provided includes details of serious violent crime, common assault, drug crime, domestic housebreaking, motor vehicle crime, anti social behaviour reported by the public and road collisions resulting in fatalities or injury that have happened in this area during the last three months. We have also provided this information for the same three month period averaged over the previous five years and the percentage change between those two figures to allow you to make comparisons.

It is important to note that in cases where the numbers of incidents are relatively small, any change up or down can lead to large percentage figures.
