I would like to poll how safe people feel in Buckingham. Say you had to walk from the centre of town to the Mitre pub, it was dark and around 8.45pm on a Saturday night...

How safe would you feel overall while making this journey? Where 1 is "Very Safe" and 6 is "Very Unsafe" Please give your answer as a number from 1 to 6. Thanks.

6. Unfortunately. This town has changed for the worse. We have so many things going wrong now, I wonder why that is....

5 it’s not as safe as it used to be around here but it’s the teenagers I’m really concerned about about the present with what’s happened recently in 2 separate incidents. We need more police on show like they used to be. Driving around in their cars isn’t enough anymore.

For the 120 women who have answered the Q in the last few days, the average is 3.3 (Where 1 is "Very Safe" and 6 is "Very Unsafe"). For the 32 men who have answered the average is 1.1

3 years ago - this was the result: there are 200 respondents - with an overall average of 1.76. Looking at women (114) and men (86) separately: male average = 1.30 while the female average = 2.33.

So things appear better for men (they feel safer) and significantly worse for women (they feel less safe than 3 years ago). Hmmm

Sadly 5... young groups of boys on corners would put me off & recent accounts of attacks in & around Buckingham ... I'd be happy on a bike for this journey

I’d say nearly a 6. But that would be mainly because of a past experience
