Carlton in Lindrick Crime Rate June 2023 | Monthly Statistics

The most striking anomaly in Carlton in Lindrick’s June 2023 crime data is the 450% spike in criminal damage and arson, rising from 2 to 11 incidents. This leap dwarfs other changes and contrasts sharply with the 4.7% overall rate (8.9 per 1,000) being slightly above the UK average (8.5 per 1,000). Anti-social behaviour (17 incidents, 33.3% of total) remains the most prevalent category, 103% above the UK average for this type. The surge in vandalism may partly explain the sharp rise in property crimes, which now account for 45% of the total (23 incidents), compared to 17.7% for violent crimes (9 incidents). Seasonal factors likely play a role: with summer beginning and longer daylight hours, local activity patterns may have shifted, though the area’s low population density (5,708 residents) and rural-adjacent character suggest fewer concentrated hotspots than in urban centres. The violence and sexual offences rate (1.6 per 1,000) is 45% below the UK average, reflecting a lack of nightlife or public spaces that typically drive such incidents. These patterns indicate a community where property-related disputes and anti-social conduct dominate, with limited exposure to violent crime compared to national trends.

June 2023 saw unprecedented volatility in specific crime categories. Criminal damage and arson, the most dramatic increase, jumped from 2 to 11 cases—a 450% rise—potentially linked to seasonal factors or localized tensions. Vehicle crime also surged by 300% (1 to 4 cases), which could reflect increased summer traffic or targeted theft in car parks. Burglary, previously absent, rose by 100% (0 to 3 cases), suggesting a new vulnerability in property security. Conversely, public order offences fell by 80% (5 to 1), due to reduced summer events or heightened enforcement. Shoplifting dropped by 75% (4 to 1), aligning with lower foot traffic during early summer. Anti-social behaviour remains 103% above the UK average (1.5 per 1,000), with 17 incidents recorded. Meanwhile, violence and sexual offences (9 cases) are 45% below the UK average (2.9 per 1,000), a contrast that may reflect the area’s quieter social fabric. Residents should note the sharp rise in vandalism, which now accounts for 21.6% of all crimes, the highest single category. This highlights a need for community engagement to address underlying causes of property damage.

Carlton in Lindrick’s crime rate in June 2023 (8.9 per 1,000) marks a 15.8% increase from the previous month’s 7.7 per 1,000, a shift that may reflect seasonal transitions or localized pressures. On a daily basis, the area experienced roughly 2 crimes per day, a figure that, while low, underscores the concentration of incidents in specific categories. Over the course of the month, one reported crime occurred for every 112 residents, a monthly exposure rate that places the area slightly above the UK average when adjusted for population size. With 5,708 residents, the community’s relatively small population means that each crime has a more pronounced impact on local perception of safety. The 4.7% above-average rate, though modest, highlights the need for targeted interventions in high-risk areas. The UK average for anti-social behaviour (1.5 per 1,000) is 103% below Carlton in Lindrick’s 3.0 per 1,000, a disparity that may reflect differences in policing strategies or social dynamics. These comparisons illustrate that while the area’s overall safety profile remains broadly aligned with national trends, specific challenges—particularly in property-related crimes—require closer attention.
