Coppull Crime Rate June 2025 | Monthly Statistics

June 2025 marked a complex month for Coppull's crime profile, with a notable uptick in anti-social behaviour and public disorder despite the area's overall safety compared to the UK. The built-up area within Chorley recorded a crime rate of 5.3 per 1,000 residents, 34.6% below the UK average of 8.1 per 1,000. This figure, while reassuring, masks significant local variations: anti-social behaviour accounted for 50% of all crimes, far exceeding the UK average of 1.4 per 1,000. The seasonal context of June—marking the start of summer and longer daylight hours—may have contributed to this surge, as extended evenings and increased foot traffic in local amenities create environments conducive to low-level disorder. Violence and sexual offences, though lower than the UK average (44% below), saw a 27.8% decline from May, possibly reflecting the impact of recent community engagement initiatives. However, the sharp rise in other theft (up 100% to three incidents) and public order offences (up 100% to two) raises concerns about underlying factors, such as the interplay between local demographics and seasonal events. While Coppull's crime rate remains relatively low, the concentration of anti-social behaviour cases highlights the need for targeted interventions in high-traffic zones, particularly during the summer months when community activities intensify.

June 2025 saw a significant increase in anti-social behaviour, with cases rising by 29.4% to 22 incidents—a 50% share of total crimes. This surge, coupled with a 100% rise in both public order offences (2 cases) and other theft (3 cases), signals a worrying trend in low-level disorder. While violent crime fell by 27.8% to 13 incidents, this decline must be viewed against the backdrop of anti-social behaviour's sharp increase, which may indicate shifting patterns of criminal activity. Anti-social behaviour in Coppull is 83% above the UK average of 1.4 per 1,000, a stark contrast to the area's overall safety profile. Residents should be particularly vigilant in areas with high foot traffic, where the combination of summer evenings and local festivals may contribute to increased incidents of anti-social behaviour. The 100% increase in public order offences, though numerically small, could reflect heightened tensions during community events.

Coppull's crime rate in June 2025 remained stable compared to the previous month, declining slightly by 2.2% to 5.3 per 1,000 residents. This continues a trend of consistently lower crime rates than the UK average, which stands at 8.1 per 1,000. On a daily basis, the area experienced roughly one reported crime per day over the 30-day period, a figure that may reflect the built-up nature of the area and its relatively compact population. When scaled to the local population, this translates to one reported crime occurring for roughly every 189 residents over the course of the month. While this monthly exposure rate is lower than the UK average, local conditions—such as community policing efforts and the area's proximity to Chorley's urban core—may contribute to this disparity. The population context further highlights that even a single crime can have a noticeable impact on a smaller, tightly-knit community like Coppull.
