Rhymney Crime Rate November 2025 | Monthly Statistics

The crime profile of Rhymney in November 2025 is defined by an almost complete absence of criminal activity, with anti-social behaviour accounting for 100% of the single reported crime. This stark imbalance in crime types reflects a departure from the UK average, where anti-social behaviour alone constitutes around 15% of all crimes nationally. The overall crime rate of 0.2 per 1,000 residents — 97.3% below the UK average of 7.3 per 1,000 — positions Rhymney as an outlier in the national crime profile. Such a low rate, particularly in a built-up area, may be attributed to factors such as strong community cohesion, effective local policing, or the relatively small population of 5,271, which could limit opportunities for certain types of crime. Seasonal events like Bonfire Night and the shopping frenzy of Black Friday, which often correlate with spikes in anti-social behaviour in other areas, appear to have had a muted impact here. The dominance of anti-social behaviour in the data may also be influenced by the nature of the built-up area within Caerphilly, where informal social controls or rapid response mechanisms might mitigate more severe crimes. This month’s data, while sparse, offers a glimpse into a community where crime prevention efforts may be particularly effective, even in the face of seasonal pressures.

The crime mix in November 2025 reveals a stark contrast to national trends, with anti-social behaviour representing 100% of all reported crimes in Rhymney. This category, at 0.2 per 1,000 residents, is 81% below the UK average of 1.1 per 1,000, indicating a marked deviation from typical patterns observed in larger urban areas. While the overall crime rate remains exceptionally low, the dominance of anti-social behaviour may reflect seasonal pressures — such as the impact of dark evenings and the heightened social activity surrounding Bonfire Night — which could temporarily elevate such incidents. The absence of other crime types, including property crimes or violent offences, further suggests that Rhymney’s built-up environment may be characterised by a different set of dynamics, influenced by community engagement or local policing strategies. For residents, this data offers reassurance that the risk of encountering more severe crimes remains minimal.

Rhymney's November 2025 crime rate of 0.2 per 1,000 residents translates to roughly 0 crimes per day over the 30-day period, a figure that underscores the area’s exceptionally low daily crime exposure. When considering monthly exposure, one reported crime occurred for every 5,271 residents — a statistic that, when contextualised against Rhymney’s population of 5,271, illustrates that the likelihood of encountering crime during the month was effectively zero for any given individual. This stark contrast to the UK average of 7.3 per 1,000 highlights the area’s unique position in the national crime profile. While the built-up nature of Rhymney may suggest a higher density of activity and potential for crime, the data suggests a community where public safety measures or social cohesion may play a significant role in deterring criminal activity. The population-scaled perspective further reinforces that, for residents, the risk of experiencing crime remains negligible, even amid seasonal events such as Bonfire Night or the shopping rush of Black Friday.
