In summary

Glossop sits close to the national midpoint for deprivation, #3,707 of 6,856 in England, and #7 of 11 in High Peak.

Crimes are counted where they happen while residents are counted where they live, so busy town-centre, retail and nightlife areas show high per-resident rates because visitors bring incidents with them.
