Shavington Crime Rate September 2025 | Monthly Statistics

In Shavington, the crime rate for September 2025 stood at 3.0 per 1,000 residents, a figure that is 59.5% below the UK average of 7.4 per 1,000. This stark contrast positions the area as one of the safer built-up regions in England and Wales. The most common crime category was violence and sexual offences, which accounted for 58.8% of all incidents, followed by public order offences at 11.8%. These statistics reflect a pattern where violent crime remains a focal point, yet the rate for this category is 30% lower than the national average. The seasonal context of September, marked by the return to school and university freshers, may partly explain the distribution of offences, with increased social activity potentially influencing both crime hotspots and policing priorities. The rate for anti-social behaviour was 83% below the UK average, suggesting that community engagement initiatives or local cultural factors may contribute to this trend. The low property crime rate, with only three incidents reported, further reinforces the area’s safety profile. While violent crime dominates the crime picture, the overall rate remains significantly lower than national benchmarks, indicating that Shavington’s built-up environment is effectively managed in terms of public safety.

September 2025 saw a 66.7% decrease in anti-social behaviour, falling from three incidents to one, the most significant drop among all crime categories. This decline coincides with the start of the academic year, suggesting that school and university calendars may influence public behaviour in the area. Violent crimes remained the most prevalent category, accounting for 58.8% of all incidents, yet they were 30% below the UK average of 2.6 per 1,000 residents. This discrepancy highlights the area’s relative safety compared to national standards, despite the concentration of violent offences. Public order offences also fell by 50.0%, from four to two, aligning with broader reductions in disruptive incidents. The drop in shoplifting, which fell by 50.0% from two to one, may reflect increased foot traffic during the back-to-school period, deterring opportunistic theft. These shifts demonstrate a dynamic interplay between seasonal factors and local crime patterns, offering actionable insights for community safety initiatives.

Shavington's September 2025 crime rate of 3.0 per 1,000 residents marks a 37.1% decrease from the previous month's rate of 4.8 per 1,000. This decline aligns with a broader trend observed in local policing data, where seasonal transitions often correlate with reduced crime activity. On a daily basis, the area experienced approximately one reported crime per day in September, a figure that translates to a manageable level of exposure for residents. Over the course of the month, one crime occurred for roughly every 333 residents, a statistic that contextualises risk in terms of population density. This monthly exposure rate is lower than the UK average, reflecting the area’s overall safety profile. The population-scaled perspective highlights that even with 17 total crimes recorded, the per-resident impact remains minimal compared to national benchmarks. This contrast underscores the effectiveness of local crime prevention strategies, particularly in mitigating violent and property-related incidents during transitional months like September.
