University crime survey for York residents

York residents are to be quizzed on how they think police should tackle crime. Academics from the York Management School at the University of York have devised a survey, with the support of North Yorkshire Police, Safer York Partnership and City of York Council, which they hope will indicate attitudes and concerns towards crime and disorder in the city.

The research, led by Prof Kiran Fernandes of York Management School, will gather the views of thousands of residents and former residents of York on their views on crime, the fear of crime, confidence and their views on policing.

A key feature of the research will be investigating the impact of where people live now and in the past on their attitudes towards the police.
