Tadley Crime Rate November 2025 | Monthly Statistics

In November 2025, Tadley’s crime rate of 3.0 per 1,000 residents places it 58.9% below the UK average of 7.3. For a community of 14,332 people, this translates to roughly one crime experienced by every 333 residents over the course of the month. The most common offences were violence and sexual offences (46.5% of total crimes), followed by anti-social behaviour (18.6%) and shoplifting (7.0%). These patterns align with seasonal factors typical of late autumn, when darker evenings and events like Bonfire Night may contribute to increased social interactions in public spaces. The relatively low rate of property crimes (23% of total) contrasts with the UK average, where property offences often dominate. This suggests Tadley’s built-up area within Basingstoke and Deane may benefit from a more tightly knit community structure, reducing opportunities for theft and burglary. However, the higher proportion of violent crimes compared to the UK average (where violence and sexual offences make up 2.6 per 1,000 residents) highlights a need for targeted local strategies to address interpersonal conflicts. The month also saw a 68% below-average rate of shoplifting, influenced by the proximity of larger retail hubs in nearby Basingstoke, which might draw such crimes away from Tadley’s smaller commercial centres.

November 2025 saw notable shifts in crime patterns, with vehicle crime and robbery both doubling from the previous month (100% increase). This surge may be linked to the pre-Christmas rush for seasonal shopping, with increased vehicle movement in local areas potentially creating more opportunities for theft. Meanwhile, other theft crimes fell by two-thirds (66.7%), a drop that could reflect heightened community awareness around Black Friday promotions or improved security measures. The category of violence and sexual offences rose by 17.6% (from 17 to 20 cases), a change that may be partially explained by the impact of prolonged darkness and colder weather, which can reduce outdoor activity but increase indoor gatherings where conflicts might escalate. Tadley’s rate of violent crimes (1.4 per 1,000) is 46% below the UK average of 2.6 per 1,000, suggesting that while the local rate is increasing, it remains significantly lower than national trends. Conversely, possession of weapons in Tadley (0.1 per 1,000) is 43% above the UK average of 0.1 per 1,000, a small but statistically significant discrepancy that may warrant further local monitoring. These findings illustrate the combination of seasonal dynamics and community-specific factors in shaping local crime profiles.

Tadley’s crime rate in November 2025 remained stable compared to the previous month, with no change in the overall rate of 3.0 per 1,000 residents. On a daily basis, this equates to approximately one crime reported every 30 days, or roughly one incident per day for the 14,332 residents. When scaled to the population, this means that over the course of the month, one reported crime occurred for every 333 residents. While this figure is lower than the UK average monthly exposure (which is not provided here), it underscores the relatively low frequency of crime in Tadley compared to the national context. The stability in the overall rate contrasts with the shifts in individual categories, such as the doubling of vehicle crime and robbery. This highlights the importance of distinguishing between aggregate trends and the specific types of crime that may be influenced by local conditions. For residents, the daily crime count provides a tangible benchmark: the likelihood of experiencing a crime in Tadley in any given day is approximately 0.03%, a figure that, while non-zero, remains markedly lower than the UK average. This perspective helps contextualise the data, showing that while certain crime types are rising, the overall risk to individuals remains comparatively low.
