Crime & Security Data

Crime statistics and Burntisland

As a Scottish town, Burntisland has its crime data published by Police Scotland rather than through Police.uk.

For that reason we do not show an offence breakdown on this page. Police Scotland makes its own figures available for Fife. The most reliable guide to risk at a specific property is to inspect it, so we offer a free on-site security audit, worth £250, built on a 25-point checklist and finished with practical written recommendations.
