Brundall Crime Rate June 2024 | Monthly Statistics

For residents of Brundall, the crime rate of 3.7 per 1,000 residents in June 2024 translates to a daily risk that is both tangible and low. This figure, which is 54.9% below the UK average of 8.2 per 1,000, underscores the area's relative safety. The most common crimes reported were violence and sexual offences, which accounted for 42.1% of all incidents — a rate that is 42% below the UK average. Anti-social behaviour followed at 26.3%, and public order offences at 15.8%, both of which also remain well below national benchmarks. The seasonal context of June, with its longer days and the beginning of summer, may contribute to the patterns observed, though the low overall rate suggests that community factors and local policing efforts are likely playing a role in maintaining safety. The built-up nature of Brundall within Broadland, combined with its likely proximity to rural areas, may influence crime dynamics, with public order issues linked to local social activities and the start of tourist-related interactions. While direct causes, the consistency with national trends in certain categories — such as vehicle crime being 56% below the UK average — suggests that Brundall's unique characteristics, including its population density and local infrastructure, may be shaping these outcomes. The absence of significant spikes in property crimes, which made up only 2 of the 19 total incidents, further illustrates a crime profile that is skewed towards violent and disorderly offences rather than theft or burglary.

June 2024 saw notable shifts in Brundall's crime mix, with vehicle crime and drug-related incidents each doubling from zero to one reported case. This increase, though small in absolute terms, may reflect seasonal patterns as summer activities intensify. Public order offences also rose by 50%, from two to three incidents, a change that could be linked to the start of the summer season and associated social gatherings. Conversely, other thefts fell by two-thirds, from three to one case — a reduction that might indicate improved security measures or reduced opportunities for such crimes. Violence and sexual offences remained the most prevalent category, accounting for 42.1% of all crimes, yet this rate is still 42% below the UK average. These figures suggest that while certain crime types are fluctuating, Brundall continues to maintain a crime profile significantly lower than the national standard.

Brundall's crime rate in June 2024 remained stable at 3.7 per 1,000 residents, matching the previous month's figure exactly. This consistency suggests no abrupt shifts in local conditions or policing efforts. On a daily basis, the area experienced roughly one reported crime per day over the 30-day period, a figure that translates to a manageable level of exposure for residents. When scaled to the population of 5,088, the monthly exposure means that over the course of June, one crime occurred for every 268 residents — a rate significantly lower than the UK average. This monthly aggregate highlights the relative safety of Brundall compared to national trends, though such statistics do not capture the full complexity of local safety dynamics. The low frequency of incidents also aligns with the area's built-up character within Broadland, where community engagement and local policing may contribute to maintaining crime levels below the national benchmark.
