Tadley Crime Rate June 2025 | Monthly Statistics

Violence and sexual offences dominated Tadley's crime profile in June 2025, accounting for 38.1% of all reported crimes and marking the area's most prevalent category. With 16 incidents recorded, this category remained 62% below the UK average of 2.9 per 1,000 residents, a consistent trend that reflects Tadley's long-standing position as a relatively safe built-up area within Basingstoke and Deane. The overall crime rate of 2.9 per 1,000 residents was 64.2% below the UK's 8.1 per 1,000, illustrating a stark contrast between local and national trends. Anti-social behaviour followed closely with 19.1% of total crimes, and public order offences accounted for 16.7%, both categories showing notable gaps from their respective UK averages. Seasonal factors likely influenced these patterns, as the start of summer brought longer days and increased tourism to the area. This could explain the rise in public order offences, which may be linked to more foot traffic in local spaces or the impact of outdoor events. However, the decline in shoplifting by 80% compared to May suggests that retail-focused crime may be less prevalent during this time of year, due to changes in consumer behaviour or the timing of local festivals. Tadley's crime profile, shaped by its suburban character and proximity to Basingstoke, continues to demonstrate a resilience against rising national crime rates, with a focus on maintaining community safety through lower rates of violent and property-related offences.

June 2025 saw a marked 80% reduction in shoplifting, with incidents dropping from five to one. This decrease may be linked to the start of summer, when retail activity shifts and tourist spending patterns change. Conversely, criminal damage and arson increased by 150%, rising from two to five incidents. This spike could be attributed to seasonal factors, such as increased outdoor events or longer daylight hours encouraging more activity in public spaces. Public order offences also surged by 100%, from zero to seven, a shift that may reflect the impact of summer festivals or increased social gatherings. Violence and sexual offences remained 62% below the UK average, with 16 incidents recorded in June. This stark contrast to the UK's 2.9 per 1,000 rate for the category highlights Tadley's consistent performance in keeping violent crime at bay, despite the seasonal fluctuations in other categories.

Tadley's June 2025 crime rate of 2.9 per 1,000 residents marks a 25.1% decrease from May's 3.9 per 1,000, reflecting a continuing trend of reduced criminal activity. Over the course of the month, one reported crime occurred for every 341 residents, a figure that contextualises the monthly exposure to crime in a way that highlights the relatively low frequency of incidents. Daily, Tadley saw approximately one crime per day, a localised statistic that contrasts with the UK's broader averages but aligns with the area's established safety profile. This rate, when scaled to Tadley's population of 14,332, underscores the community's position as a place with significantly lower crime exposure compared to the national average. The decrease in violent crime by 42.9% from May to June further supports the notion that Tadley is experiencing a period of relative stability, with fewer incidents of violence and sexual offences contributing to the overall drop in crime.
