Frodsham Crime Rate November 2025 | Monthly Statistics

Frodsham's crime profile in November 2025 reveals a balance of violent and non-violent offences that reflects both the area's character and seasonal dynamics. At 5.8 per 1,000 residents, the overall crime rate is 20.5% below the UK average of 7.3, suggesting a generally secure built-up area within Cheshire West and Chester. The most common crime types were violence and sexual offences (29.6% of total crimes), anti-social behaviour (22.2%), and public order offences (16.7%). This mix contrasts with the UK average, where violence and sexual offences account for 34% of all crimes. The prominence of public order offences in Frodsham—113% above the UK average—may be consistent with the area's urban character and the impact of seasonal events such as Bonfire Night. While violent crime remained a concern, the 27.3% month-on-month decline in violence and sexual offences could be linked to reduced public activity during darker evenings. Anti-social behaviour, though lower than the UK average for violent crime, remains a significant local issue, tied to the area's social fabric and community interactions. The relatively low rates of burglary (5.6% of total crimes) and shoplifting (3.7%)—both well below UK averages—suggest that Frodsham's residents may benefit from strong community policing or limited retail density. However, the 200% increase in burglary, criminal damage, and 'other crime' categories highlights a shift in risk factors, influenced by the month's darker nights and seasonal events. This balance of crime types illustrates Frodsham's unique position as a built-up area with both urban and rural characteristics, where community-focused policing and seasonal awareness may play a critical role in shaping crime trends.

November 2025 saw a stark shift in Frodsham's crime mix, with property-related crimes surging by 200% in burglary, criminal damage, and 'other crime' categories. This contrasts with a 27.3% decrease in violence and sexual offences, which had previously dominated the monthly breakdown. The drop in violent crime may reflect seasonal factors, such as the closure of schools or reduced public activity during darker evenings. Meanwhile, public order offences—113% above the UK average—highlight a persistent challenge in managing community disruptions, possibly linked to Bonfire Night events. Anti-social behaviour (22.2% of total crimes) and public order (16.7%) remained elevated, indicating that non-violent but disruptive incidents continue to shape the local crime picture. Residents may find the 200% rise in burglary particularly concerning, as it suggests increased vulnerability in homes during the month.

Frodsham's crime rate in November 2025 rose 20.0% compared to the previous month, moving from 4.8 to 5.8 per 1,000 residents. This increase, while notable, remains 20.5% below the UK average of 7.3. Locally, this translates to roughly two crimes reported each day in November—a figure that, while low, reflects the area's generally secure environment. Over the course of the month, one reported crime occurred for every 172 residents, a monthly exposure rate that places Frodsham among the safer built-up areas in the UK. When compared to the previous month, the shift in crime types—from a focus on violence and sexual offences to a surge in property-related crimes—suggests seasonal influences. The 200% increase in burglary, criminal damage, and 'other crime' categories may partly explain this shift, potentially linked to Bonfire Night activities or heightened property vulnerability during darker evenings. The population-scaled perspective shows that Frodsham's residents face a lower risk of crime than the UK average, though the month-on-month rise warrants attention to local factors driving these changes.
