Weaverham Crime Rate November 2025 | Monthly Statistics

The crime profile in Weaverham during November 2025 reveals a stark contrast between violent crimes and property-related offences. Violence and sexual offences accounted for 61.9% of all reported crimes, significantly higher than the 22% share seen nationally. This dominance of violent crime may partly explain the area's overall crime rate of 3.2 per 1,000 residents, which is 56.2% below the UK average of 7.3. The seasonal context of November—marked by Bonfire Night events, Black Friday shopping, and extended darkness—could influence patterns of violent incidents, particularly in public spaces. Anti-social behaviour and public order offences, which typically reflect local social dynamics, accounted for 19% of crimes but remained 72% and 36% below UK averages respectively. Property crimes were exceptionally rare, with only three incidents recorded, far below the UK average for burglary and theft. This imbalance suggests that Weaverham's crime profile is shaped more by interpersonal conflicts and public safety concerns than by economic or property-related motives. The low prevalence of property crime may be linked to the area's built-up nature and community policing initiatives. Seasonal factors like reduced visibility and increased social gatherings likely contribute to the elevated proportion of violent crimes, particularly during late-night hours.

November 2025 saw significant fluctuations in specific crime categories, with anti-social behaviour doubling to two incidents (from one in October) and burglary and other crime each increasing from zero to one. This uptick in low-volume categories may reflect isolated incidents rather than systemic trends. Conversely, public order offences fell by 50%, dropping from four to two, possibly due to heightened police presence during Bonfire Night or changes in community behaviour. The crime mix remains heavily skewed towards violent offences, with violence and sexual offences at 2.0 per 1,000 residents—22% below the UK average. This divergence from national patterns highlights Weaverham's unique social dynamics, where interpersonal disputes appear to drive crime more than theft or property-related issues. A useful data point for residents: the 3.2 crime rate translates to roughly one reported crime for every 314 residents over the course of the month, a figure that contextualises the low frequency of incidents despite the dominance of violent crime.

Weaverham's crime rate in November 2025 decreased by 4.5% compared to October's 3.3 per 1,000 residents, reflecting a marginal but consistent trend of declining crime. On a daily basis, the area recorded one crime per day in November, a localised figure that provides a tangible sense of the pace of incidents. When scaled to the population, this equates to one reported crime for every 314 residents over the month—a figure that underscores the relatively low frequency of crime despite the elevated share of violent offences. In comparison to the UK average, Weaverham's overall crime rate remains 56.2% below the national benchmark, a gap that is particularly pronounced in violent crime categories. The area's population of 6,599 residents further contextualises these figures, with the low crime density suggesting a community that is either effectively managed by local services or shaped by socio-economic factors that limit criminal opportunities. While the absolute numbers remain small, the dominance of violent crime over property-related offences indicates a distinct profile compared to other areas, where economic factors might drive different patterns.
