Elworth's crime profile in November 2025 reveals a marked improvement in safety, with the area's overall crime rate of 2.2 per 1,000 residents representing a 69.9% reduction compared to the UK average of 7.3 per 1,000. This stark contrast underscores the effectiveness of local initiatives and community engagement in maintaining security. The most prevalent crime types were violence and sexual offences (25% of total), followed by vehicle crime (20%) and burglary (15%). Seasonal factors in November—such as shorter evenings, Bonfire Night, and Black Friday shopping—likely influenced these patterns, though the significant drop in violent crime suggests positive outcomes from targeted policing or community efforts. Vehicle crime, while rising slightly above the UK average, remains relatively low in Elworth, possibly due to the area's compact built-up nature reducing opportunities for such offences. The lower-than-average rates for burglary (UK avg: 0.3 per 1,000) and public order offences (36% below UK average) further highlight the area's success in preventing property-related and disruptive crimes. These figures indicate a generally stable environment, with the most notable shift being the 75% reduction in violence and sexual offences compared to October 2025. The combination of seasonal context, local demographics, and policing strategies appears to have created a safer environment, though continued vigilance is necessary as November's darker evenings and holiday-related activity may introduce new challenges.

Elworth's crime statistics for November 2025 highlight a 75% decrease in violence and sexual offences compared to October, a reduction that likely reflects the impact of community safety measures or increased police visibility during the month. This drop brings the rate of such crimes to 0.6 per 1,000 residents—77% below the UK average of 2.6 per 1,000. Conversely, burglary saw a sharp 200% increase, rising from one incident to three, which may be linked to the seasonal demand for property-related crimes during the holiday season. Vehicle crime also doubled month-on-month, reaching four incidents, a rate of 0.5 per 1,000 residents—25% above the UK average of 0.4 per 1,000. This uptick could be attributed to increased vehicle movement during Black Friday shopping or the presence of temporary parking arrangements. Other notable trends include a 100% rise in 'other crime' and a 100% increase in shoplifting.1 per 1,000 residents—84% below the UK average. The overall crime mix in Elworth shows a shift towards property-related offences, with vehicle crime and burglary now accounting for 35% of total incidents, compared to 25% for violent crimes. These changes, while concerning in some areas, are balanced by the significant reductions in violence, suggesting a combination of local factors and seasonal dynamics that require ongoing analysis.

In November 2025, Elworth's crime rate of 2.2 per 1,000 residents marked a 33.3% decrease from the previous month's rate of 3.4 per 1,000. This decline aligns with the area's broader trend of maintaining a crime rate well below the UK average, which stood at 7.3 per 1,000. On a daily basis, Elworth recorded approximately one crime per day over the 30-day period, a figure that translates to a monthly exposure of one reported crime for roughly every 447 residents. This statistic provides a tangible measure of the likelihood of encountering crime in the area, contextualised against the population of 8,931. When compared to the UK's daily crime figures (which are not provided here), Elworth's low rate reinforces its status as a relatively safe built-up area within Cheshire East. The population-scaled perspective further illustrates that, despite the month-on-month fluctuations in specific crime types, the overall risk remains significantly lower than national benchmarks. For residents, this means that while vigilance is still necessary—particularly around vehicle crime and burglary—the overall environment remains secure. The comparison also highlights the importance of localised data in understanding crime trends, as national averages can mask significant regional differences. This analysis underscores the value of monthly reporting in capturing both the stability and the nuances of Elworth's crime profile.
