Bingley Crime Rate November 2025 | Monthly Statistics

Violence and sexual offences remain the dominant category in Bingley's crime profile, accounting for 47.4% of all reported crimes in November 2025. With a crime rate of 6.8 per 1,000 residents, the area is 6.8% below the UK average of 7.3 per 1,000. This pattern aligns with Bingley's status as a built-up area within Bradford, where higher population density and social interactions may contribute to elevated rates of interpersonal crime. The data shows a stark contrast between violent crime (73 incidents) and property crime (53 incidents), highlighting the central role of personal safety in local concerns. Seasonal factors such as the darkening evenings of November and the proximity to Bonfire Night may have influenced crime dynamics. While violence and sexual offences are 25% above the UK average, anti-social behaviour is 34% below, suggesting community-specific factors that temper broader trends. The area's crime picture reflects a combination of local characteristics—such as its position as a commuter hub and its retail infrastructure—interacting with national patterns. This month's data underscores the need for targeted approaches to address violence while leveraging the area's relatively lower rates in other categories.

November 2025 saw significant fluctuations in specific crime types, with burglary increasing by 71.4% compared to the previous month (7 to 12 incidents). This rise, while notable, remains below the UK average for burglary (0.3 per 1,000) at 0.5 per 1,000. Concurrently, theft from the person surged by 100%, marking a rare spike in this category, which was 100% below the UK average. These shifts highlight the volatility of crime patterns in Bingley, with retail and commercial areas likely contributing to the increase in burglary. Meanwhile, anti-social behaviour fell by 50%, aligning with the area's 34% deficit compared to the UK average. This decline may reflect the impact of local initiatives or seasonal factors such as the quieter pre-Christmas period. The contrast between violent crime (25% above UK average) and property crime (which remains mixed) illustrates the complexity of Bingley's crime profile. For residents, the most immediate concern remains the high incidence of violence and sexual offences, which account for nearly half of all reported crimes and require sustained community and policing efforts.

Bingley's crime rate in November 2025 (6.8 per 1,000) is slightly lower than the previous month's rate of 6.9 per 1,000, reflecting a stable trend over the past 30 days. On a daily basis, the area recorded approximately 5 crimes per day, a figure that contextualises the monthly total of 154 incidents. Over the course of November, one reported crime occurred for roughly every 148 residents, a monthly exposure rate that is comparable to other built-up areas within the West Yorkshire region. When scaled to Bingley's population of 22,761, this translates to a relatively manageable frequency of incidents, though the concentration of violent crime remains a concern. The comparison to the UK average reveals a nuanced picture: while Bingley's overall crime rate is slightly better than the national average, its performance varies significantly by category. For instance, the area's rate for violence and sexual offences is higher than the UK average, whereas anti-social behaviour is significantly lower. This divergence underscores the importance of localised factors in shaping crime patterns, with Bingley's specific social and economic context playing a key role in these variations.
