Brundall’s crime rate in June 2025 stood at 4.9 per 1,000 residents, a figure that places the area 39.5% below the UK average of 8.1 per 1,000. This relatively low rate translates to a daily risk of one in 204 residents encountering a crime over the course of the month, a statistic that underscores the area’s continued safety compared to national trends. The most common crimes were violence and sexual offences, which accounted for 52% of all reported incidents — a category that, while rising sharply compared to the previous month, still sits 9% below the UK average. Public order offences, though less frequent, were 36% above the UK average, suggesting localized pressures in this category. The area’s crime profile appears shaped by seasonal factors: June marks the beginning of summer, with longer days and the start of tourist activity in nearby rural and coastal areas. This timing may contribute to a mix of incidents, including public order issues linked to increased foot traffic, while the low rates of burglary and shoplifting reflect the area’s character as a relatively quiet, built-up part of Broadland. The contrast between Brundall’s violent crime trends and its property crime rates highlights the need for targeted approaches — addressing the surge in violence without overcomplicating the broader safety narrative. For residents, the data suggests that while the risk of violent crime has increased, the overall likelihood of encountering a crime remains low, a balance that may be influenced by both local conditions and the broader seasonal context.
