Euxton Crime Rate November 2025 | Monthly Statistics

Euxton’s crime profile in November 2025 reveals a striking imbalance between property and violent crime, with the latter dominating at 23 incidents compared to just 8 property crimes. This divergence may be influenced by the area’s character as a built-up district within Chorley, where community interactions and local events could amplify interpersonal tensions. The overall crime rate of 3.3 per 1,000 residents places Euxton 54.8% below the UK average, a significant gap that suggests effective local crime prevention measures or demographic factors contributing to lower rates. Anti-social behaviour (25 incidents) and violence and sexual offences (23 incidents) accounted for over 75% of all crimes, highlighting a focus on disorderly conduct and personal safety issues. Seasonal factors such as Bonfire Night and Black Friday shopping may have played a role in shaping these patterns, with public order offences spiking by 200% and anti-social behaviour rising by 47.1%. However, the absence of major property crime spikes—despite the shopping season—contrasts with typical urban trends, indicating possible differences in local retail environments or community engagement. The UK comparison data further reveals that Euxton’s violent crime rate is 53% below the national average, while property-related offences like shoplifting are 84% below UK levels, reinforcing the area’s unique crime profile. These figures, when contextualised with Euxton’s population of 19,346 and its built-up nature, suggest a community where social cohesion and policing strategies may be playing a pivotal role in maintaining lower crime rates.

November 2025 saw a dramatic 200% increase in public order offences, rising from one to three incidents. This surge, coupled with a 47.1% rise in anti-social behaviour, suggests a shift in community dynamics during the month. Conversely, criminal damage and arson fell by 62.5%, possibly linked to the absence of Bonfire Night-related incidents compared to previous years. Violent crime, though remaining the dominant category, stayed 53% below the UK average, a consistent trend that may reflect Euxton’s demographic characteristics or local initiatives. The stark contrast between property crime (8 incidents) and violent crime (23 incidents) underscores a crime profile skewed heavily toward personal safety concerns, which could indicate underlying social or economic factors. Residents may find the 80% reduction in other thefts (from five to two) particularly noteworthy, though this remains an anomaly in an otherwise stable month.

Euxton’s crime rate in November 2025 dropped to 3.3 per 1,000 residents, an 8.7% decline from the previous month’s 3.6 per 1,000. This downward trend aligns with seasonal patterns typical of late autumn, when increased daylight hours and reduced holiday activity may contribute to lower crime rates. On a daily basis, the area recorded approximately two crimes per day, a figure that, while modest, reflects the small population of 19,346. Over the course of the month, one reported crime occurred for roughly every 307 residents, a monthly exposure rate that underscores the relatively low frequency of incidents. When compared to the UK average of 7.3 per 1,000, Euxton’s rate remains significantly lower, highlighting the area’s distinct crime profile. This contrast is particularly notable in violent crime categories, where local rates are 53% below the UK average, suggesting a combination of community factors and local policing strategies that may contribute to this disparity.
