This is the result of a telephone survey that was conducted in this area which asked local people whether they agree that:

"The police and local council are dealing with the anti-social behaviour and crime issues that matter in this area".

Care should be taken in making comparisons in local indicators that have used different survey techniques.

The survey is based on a random sample of people in the local area, with a booster quota sample of "top-up" responses. The use of a random sample with a quota booster sample seeks to ensure the results are broadly representative of the local population. Quota samples may, however, inadvertently introduce unknown sources of statistical bias.
