Petty crimes:Very low
Wells-next-the-Sea is known to be a peaceful and safe town. Petty crime rates, such as pickpocketing and bag-snatching incidents, are very low. It is typical for small local towns in the UK like this to have a tight-knit community where everyone recognizes each other, contributing to the overall safety. However, like everywhere, it's still important to take general precautions, like not leaving your belongings unattended, particularly on the beach during the busy summer period.
