Violence and sexual offences dominated Carlton in Lindrick’s crime profile in November 2023, accounting for 29.8% of all reported incidents (17 cases). This category alone was 16% above the UK average, a stark contrast to the national rate of 2.6 per 1,000. The area’s overall crime rate of 10.0 per 1,000—33.3% higher than the UK average—reflects a concentrated pattern of incidents, particularly in property and public order categories. Anti-social behaviour (21.1% of total crimes) and criminal damage (12.3%) also significantly exceeded national benchmarks, suggesting persistent challenges in community management. These trends may be influenced by the season, with November’s shorter evenings and events like Bonfire Night potentially contributing to increased disorder. The local context of Carlton in Lindrick, a built-up area within Bassetlaw, may amplify such factors, as smaller communities often experience sharper fluctuations in crime due to limited policing resources or transient populations. Meanwhile, shoplifting and public order offences, though lower than in October, remained elevated compared to UK averages, indicating that retail and public spaces remain key hotspots. The area’s crime profile highlights a need for targeted interventions, particularly in managing violent and anti-social incidents, which are driving the rate above national levels.

November 2023 saw sharp increases in burglary (+100%), other theft (+100%), and robbery (+100%) compared to October, reflecting a notable shift in crime patterns. These rises, though small in absolute terms (from 1 to 2 incidents each), may indicate emerging vulnerabilities in residential or commercial security. Conversely, shoplifting fell by 45.5% (11 to 6), possibly due to reduced foot traffic during the holiday season or targeted retail initiatives. Anti-social behaviour and criminal damage also remained significantly above UK averages, with anti-social behaviour 100% above the national rate. This suggests a persistent challenge in managing community disorder, which may be exacerbated by seasonal factors like Bonfire Night or the darker evenings of November. The breakdown also reveals that property crimes (21) now outnumber violent crimes (17), a shift that could reflect changing priorities among offenders or environmental factors such as increased home occupancy during the month.

Carlton in Lindrick’s crime rate in November 2023 rose to 10.0 per 1,000 residents, marking a 16.4% increase from the previous month’s 8.6 per 1,000. This places the area significantly above the UK average of 7.5 per 1,000, though the context here is a built-up area within Bassetlaw, where population density and local dynamics may influence crime patterns. On a daily basis, the area experienced approximately two crimes per day over the month, a figure that, while low in absolute terms, reflects the concentrated nature of incidents in a small community. Over the course of November, one crime was reported for roughly every 100 residents, a monthly exposure rate that underscores the frequency of incidents relative to the area’s population of 5,708. This suggests that while the overall rate remains manageable, the proportion of crimes per capita is higher than in many comparable areas, potentially indicating localized pressures such as seasonal events or community-specific factors.
