Haddenham Crime Rate November 2025 | Monthly Statistics

Haddenham's crime profile in November 2025 reveals a stark contrast to the UK average, with a rate of 2.2 crimes per 1,000 residents—69.9% below the national figure of 7.3. This built-up area within Buckinghamshire maintains a consistently low crime environment, though the data shows a nuanced picture. Violence and sexual offences dominated the crime profile, accounting for 50% of total reports, followed by public order offences (21.4%) and shoplifting (7.1%). These figures align with seasonal patterns typical of late autumn, when events like Bonfire Night and Black Friday shopping may influence local crime dynamics. The relatively high proportion of violent crimes compared to property crimes suggests a focus on interpersonal conflicts rather than theft or burglary. Haddenham's violent crime rate (1.1 per 1,000) is 57% below the UK average for this category, reflecting broader safety trends in this part of Buckinghamshire. While the overall rate remains low, the presence of public order offences—slightly above the UK average—hints at localized tensions that may require community engagement. The seasonal context of November, with its shorter days and high-traffic shopping periods, likely contributes to the mix of crime types observed, though can be asserted without further analysis. This data underscores Haddenham's position as a comparatively safe area, with crime patterns shaped by both national trends and local seasonal rhythms.

November 2025 saw notable shifts in crime trends within Haddenham. Public order offences surged by 200% compared to the previous month, rising from one to three incidents. This increase may reflect heightened community activity during Bonfire Night or challenges in managing public spaces during late autumn. Conversely, other theft crimes fell by 75% (from four to one), and anti-social behaviour decreased by 66.7%, suggesting temporary reductions in certain problematic behaviours. Violence and sexual offences, while still the most common category, declined by 12.5% (from eight to seven), though they remain 57% below the UK average. The category of criminal damage and arson doubled from zero to one incident, a sharp increase that could be linked to seasonal events or isolated incidents. These fluctuations highlight the dynamic nature of crime in Haddenham, where specific categories respond to monthly rhythms. For residents, the 69.9% gap between Haddenham's crime rate and the UK average remains a key indicator of the area's safety, though localized spikes in public order issues warrant attention. The data also shows that shoplifting (7.1% of total crimes) is 68% below the UK average, reinforcing the area's low-level theft profile.

Haddenham's November 2025 crime rate of 2.2 per 1,000 residents marks a 30.2% decline from the previous month's rate of 3.1, continuing a downward trend that underscores the area's stability. Over the course of November, this equates to roughly 0 crimes per day on average—a figure that, while technically a local aggregate, highlights the exceptionally low frequency of incidents in this built-up area. When scaled to the population of 6,501 residents, the monthly exposure translates to one reported crime for every 464 residents, a statistic that provides context for individual risk perception. This rate is significantly lower than the UK average, which would translate to one crime for every 138 residents in a similar-sized area. The comparison to the UK average reveals Haddenham's position as an outlier in terms of safety, with violent crimes (1.1 per 1,000) and anti-social behaviour (0.2 per 1,000) both well below national levels. However, the slight increase in public order offences—6% above the UK average—illustrates a nuanced challenge in maintaining harmony in shared spaces. For residents, these statistics reinforce the area's reputation as a low-crime environment, though the localised nature of public order issues suggests opportunities for targeted community initiatives.
