Ystrad Mynach Crime Rate October 2025 | Monthly Statistics

Ystrad Mynach’s crime rate in October 2025 was 0.2 per 1,000, placing the built-up area 97.4% below the UK average of 7.7 per 1,000. This figure, the lowest recorded for the area in recent data, reflects an exceptionally low level of criminal activity compared to national trends. The monthly breakdown reveals that all reported crimes were violent, with no property-related offences recorded — a stark contrast to the UK average, where property crimes typically constitute a larger share of total incidents. Seasonal factors, including the transition to darker evenings and the timing of Halloween, may have influenced local patterns, though the area’s low crime rate suggests that these factors had limited impact. The absence of property crime reports is particularly notable, as it deviates from the UK profile where such offences often dominate. This anomaly may be attributed to local characteristics such as community cohesion, effective policing, or the area’s built-up nature, which could reduce opportunities for certain types of crime. The exceptionally low rate highlights Ystrad Mynach’s status as a relatively safe area, though residents should remain vigilant during periods of heightened seasonal activity. The data also indicates that violent crime, while present, remains far below national levels, reinforcing the area’s overall safety profile.

October 2025 saw Ystrad Mynach’s violent crime rate remain at 0.2 per 1,000, a figure 92% below the UK average of 2.7 per 1,000.

The absence of property crimes in the monthly tally contrasts with UK averages, where property-related offences typically account for a larger share of total crimes. This divergence may reflect local factors such as community dynamics or policing effectiveness. Residents should note that the area’s low crime rate persists despite seasonal factors like Halloween and darker evenings, which often correlate with increased crime in other regions. The lack of property crime reports also suggests a unique pattern in local criminal activity, warranting further observation in subsequent months.

While daily crime counts are context-dependent, the monthly aggregate provides a clearer picture of long-term patterns. The absence of property crimes in the monthly breakdown further distinguishes Ystrad Mynach from national trends, where property-related offences typically constitute a larger share of reported crimes. This contrast may reflect local characteristics such as community cohesion, low population density, or effective local policing strategies, though these factors remain speculative without further data.
