Cornwall and Scottish Borders compared

Every measure Civometry publishes for both areas, side by side. Each figure is its publisher’s own for the period named beside it, and the difference between the two is stated in the middle. Neither area is called better: which direction counts as better depends on what you are asking, and the page does not decide that for you. Where the two figures are not comparable — a different period, or nothing published for one side — the row says so instead of showing a difference.

The gaps, drawn

Each measure above that has a figure for both areas over the same period, as two dots on that measure’s own scale. The line is the distance between them; nothing here decides which end is better.

CornwallScottish BordersEach row has its own scale; the line is the gap between the two figures.

11 of the 21 measures above have no published figure for one side, so they are not drawn; the table states which side and why.

Over time

The headline series both areas publish, each over its full published span. Cornwall is the solid line and Scottish Borders the grey one; each series is its publisher’s own, and a series that starts later starts later — no gap is filled in.

Recorded crime by category

A category-by-category crime comparison needs both areas to have a full, current twelve months in the data.police.uk archive. One of them does not, so it is not shown; the crime rate above, where published, still comes from that archive.

What this comparison rests on

Two figures are only subtracted when they are the same measure over the same period. Populations differ (584,782 and residents on the latest estimates used here), so counts are shown alongside rates rather than instead of them. Nothing on this page is weighted, indexed or scored: every difference is one published number minus another, and the rows that cannot be compared say why.
