How this is worked out
Offences are counted inside Tandridge's actual boundary, published by the ONS, rather than within a radius of a town centre. That matters, because it means the number can be divided by the population of exactly the same area - 90,322 residents - to give a rate that is comparable with other boroughs.
Rates are per 1,000 residents over twelve months, the convention the Home Office and ONS use. Recorded crime is not the same as crime committed: changes in reporting and in police recording practice move these figures as well as changes in offending.
