Tredegar Crime Rate September 2025 | Monthly Statistics

Tredegar’s crime profile in September 2025 presents an anomaly compared to the UK average, with an overall crime rate of 0.1 per 1,000 residents—98.6% below the national average of 7.4 per 1,000. The single reported crime, a violent incident, accounted for 100% of the month’s total offences, a figure that is 96% below the UK average for violence and sexual offences (2.6 per 1,000). This stark deviation from the national trend suggests a unique local context, potentially influenced by the area’s built-up character within Blaenau Gwent, where community dynamics and policing strategies may play a role in maintaining low crime levels. Seasonal factors, such as the return to school and university term starts, may have contributed to this pattern, as increased foot traffic and community engagement could deter criminal activity. The absence of property crimes or other categories further highlights the dominance of violent offences, albeit at an exceptionally low rate. While causation, the alignment with seasonal transitions—such as the draw of night and the resumption of structured routines—may offer a partial explanation for the month’s unusual crime profile. This contrast to the UK’s broader trends underscores the importance of localized analysis in understanding crime patterns, particularly in areas with distinct demographic or geographic characteristics.

September 2025 marked an extraordinary decline in violent crime, with a 97.8% reduction in violence and sexual offences compared to August, when 45 such incidents were reported. This category alone accounted for 100% of the month’s total crimes, a stark contrast to the UK average of 2.6 per 1,000 residents for the same category. The overall crime rate of 0.1 per 1,000 is 98.6% below the UK average of 7.4 per 1,000, reflecting a uniquely low level of criminal activity. The month-on-month decrease of 99.3% in the overall rate—falling from 12.0 per 1,000 in August—suggests a potential seasonal influence, such as the start of the academic year, which may contribute to increased community cohesion or reduced opportunities for crime. Residents may find the data particularly notable: the single reported crime in September was a violent incident, a category that saw a 96% deficit compared to the UK average, emphasizing the area’s exceptional safety profile.

The crime rate in Tredegar for September 2025 fell sharply to 0.1 per 1,000 residents, a 99.3% decrease from the previous month’s rate of 12.0 per 1,000. This drop is the most significant monthly change recorded in the area’s recent history, reflecting a dramatic shift in local crime dynamics. On a daily basis, the area experienced approximately 0 crimes per day over the 30-day period, highlighting an exceptionally low level of criminal activity. When considering the monthly exposure, one reported crime occurred for roughly every 13,235 residents, a figure that underscores the rarity of incidents in this built-up area. The population context further illustrates the scale: with 13,235 residents, the single reported crime represents an infinitesimal fraction of the population’s daily interactions. This stark contrast to the previous month’s rate suggests a potential alignment with seasonal factors, such as the transition into autumn, which may influence community behavior or policing effectiveness in the area.
