Yes, and the gap is not a close one. Clevedon is one of the quieter, lower-crime corners of its county. The published crime rate runs at about 51 recorded crimes per thousand residents a year. That sits roughly 43% below the wider North Somerset average. For a seaside town with a working seafront, that is a genuinely low background level rather than a marketing claim.
The figure worth holding onto is the comparison. A rate of around 51 per thousand is the sort of number that makes a place unremarkable in the good sense, and set against a local-authority average close to half again as high, it puts Clevedon firmly at the calmer end of the scale. Across a full year the town logged in the region of 1,200 recorded crimes, which for a population this size is a steady trickle rather than anything that shapes daily life. Both numbers are published rates, measured across the official statistical areas that cover the town, so they are the right way to read local crime. The wrong way is to take the annual count, divide it by the number of people living here, and panic at whatever comes out, because the published rate is built on a different population base and already does that job properly.
None of this comes with street-level detail for a reason. A town-wide rate tells you the weather, not the forecast for one road, and any honest answer stops where the data stops. What the data does say is consistent and unflattering to Clevedon's competitors: this is a place where crime is low, has stayed low, and is low by comparison rather than only by reputation. Plenty of towns feel safe and test average. This one feels safe and tests better than that.
The blunt verdict is that safety is Clevedon's strongest hand, not its weakest. If a low crime rate is near the top of your list, the town clears the bar comfortably and then keeps going.
