Beeston (Broxtowe) Crime Rate June 2025 | Monthly Statistics

Violence and sexual offences dominated Beeston (Broxtowe)'s crime profile in June 2025, accounting for 30.3% of all reported incidents. With a crime rate of 6.8 per 1,000 residents, the area recorded 347 total crimes, a figure that is 16% below the UK average of 8.1 per 1,000. This performance highlights the area's relative safety compared to the national context, though it is not without its challenges. Property crimes, particularly shoplifting, emerged as a significant concern, with 71 incidents reported—122% above the UK average for this category. This anomaly may be linked to the area's retail presence, which attracts both residents and visitors, creating opportunities for such offences. Meanwhile, violent crimes, though lower than the UK average for this category (2.9 per 1,000), remain a critical focus for local authorities. The seasonal context of June—marking the start of summer—likely influenced these patterns, as increased daylight and social activity may have both deterred and enabled different types of crime. For example, anti-social behaviour, which accounted for 17.6% of all crimes, decreased slightly compared to the UK average, reflecting the community's response to the warmer weather and extended daylight hours. However, the area's overall crime profile underscores the need for targeted interventions in retail sectors, where shoplifting remains high, and in community spaces, where anti-social behaviour persists despite seasonal trends. These findings illustrate the combination of local geography, demographics, and seasonal factors in shaping crime dynamics.

June 2025 saw notable shifts in crime patterns within Beeston (Broxtowe). Theft from the person increased by 100% compared to the previous month, rising from 0 to 2 incidents—a sharp uptick that may reflect heightened foot traffic during summer evenings. Conversely, public order offences fell by 38.7%, a decline that aligns with the start of the tourist season, when local authorities may focus on proactive engagement with visitors. Shoplifting, which remains 122% above the UK average (0.6 per 1,000), continued to dominate property crime, with 71 incidents recorded. This figure highlights a persistent challenge in retail areas, where high footfall and commercial activity may create opportunities for such offences. Meanwhile, other crime decreased by 57.1%, suggesting a possible seasonal dip in incidents that are typically reported in late spring. These fluctuations underscore the importance of contextualising crime data within the area's unique seasonal and demographic dynamics.

Beeston (Broxtowe)'s crime rate in June 2025 stood at 6.8 per 1,000 residents, a 6.5% decline from the previous month's 7.2 per 1,000. This reduction aligns with a broader trend observed in early summer months, when increased daylight and community activities may contribute to lower crime rates. On a daily basis, the area recorded approximately 12 crimes per day in June, a figure that reflects the local rhythm of daily life but remains below the UK average. Over the course of the month, one reported crime occurred for every 148 residents, a monthly exposure rate that underscores the relative safety of the area compared to national benchmarks. This statistic, when contextualised against the population of 51,231, illustrates that the majority of residents are not directly impacted by crime in any given month. The shift from May to June also highlights seasonal patterns, with the start of summer potentially reducing opportunities for certain types of crime, such as those linked to night-time activity or seasonal tourism.
