Hollywood Crime Rate June 2025 | Monthly Statistics

Hollywood’s crime rate in June 2025 stood at 3.7 per 1,000 residents, placing it 54.3% below the UK average of 8.1. This marked safety profile is underscored by the dominance of violent crimes, which accounted for 45.5% of the total 22 recorded incidents. While this category remains 41% below the UK average for violence and sexual offences (2.9 per 1,000), the surge in violent crimes—up 42.9% from May—highlights a notable shift in the area’s crime profile. Property crimes, which typically form a larger share of incidents in similar urban areas, contributed only 36.4% of total crimes this month, with other theft and burglary each rising sharply. This contrast with the UK average for other theft (0.5 per 1,000) suggests that local factors may be influencing these trends. Seasonally, the start of summer may partly explain the increase in violent crimes, as longer daylight hours and increased outdoor activity could contribute to more public interactions. However, the area’s overall safety remains evident, with anti-social behaviour, criminal damage, and public order offences all significantly below UK averages. The low crime rate, despite the rise in violence, reflects Hollywood’s status as a relatively secure built-up area within Bromsgrove, though targeted vigilance around violent incidents may be necessary as the summer progresses.

Violent crimes surged by 42.9% in June, rising from 7 to 10 incidents—a stark increase that now constitutes 45.5% of all recorded crimes. This shift contrasts with the area’s usual balance, where property crimes historically dominated. Other theft and burglary both saw 100% increases, with four reported thefts and two burglaries—marking the first instances of these crimes in the area this year. These spikes place other theft 37% above the UK average, while burglary is 7% above. Violent crime rates in Hollywood (1.7 per 1,000) remain 41% below the UK average, suggesting that while localised spikes occur, the area’s overall profile remains significantly safer than the national trend. For residents, the surge in violent crimes may warrant heightened awareness in public spaces, particularly as summer activities draw more visitors to the area.

Hollywood's crime rate in June 2025 rose by 29.5% compared to May 2025, reflecting a shift from 2.9 to 3.7 per 1,000 residents. This increase, though modest, contrasts with the area’s historically low crime profile. On a daily basis, the 22 reported crimes over 30 days translate to approximately one crime per day, a figure that underscores the rarity of incidents in this built-up area. When scaled to the population of 5,970, the monthly exposure means that one crime occurred for roughly every 271 residents. This ratio places the area among the safest in the UK, with crime levels far below the national average. However, the rise in violent crimes—up 42.9% from May—suggests a need for continued monitoring, particularly as summer activities intensify. The combination of low overall rates and specific spikes in certain categories highlights the importance of localized analysis, as national averages may obscure regional nuances. For residents, the data indicates that while the area remains secure, targeted vigilance around violent incidents may be prudent during peak summer months.
