Tiptree Crime Rate June 2023 | Monthly Statistics

Tiptree’s crime rate in June 2023 stood at 7.3 per 1,000 residents, 14.1% below the UK average of 8.5 per 1,000. This figure, while showing a 47.6% increase from May, remains in line with the area’s generally low crime profile. The most prevalent crime category was violence and sexual offences, which accounted for 37.3% of all reported crimes. This category’s rate of 2.7 per 1,000 residents is 8% below the UK average, a trend that may be influenced by the area’s built-up character and local community structures. Other crime, however, emerged as a striking outlier, with a rate of 0.9 per 1,000 residents—500% above the UK average of 0.1 per 1,000. This discrepancy suggests either a misclassification challenge or a unique local context, such as the presence of specific businesses or services that generate non-standard crime types. Anti-social behaviour, at 0.9 per 1,000, was 39% below the UK average, reinforcing the idea that Tiptree’s social fabric may contribute to lower rates of disorderly conduct. Seasonal factors, such as the start of summer, likely played a role in shaping these patterns, with increased tourism influencing both violent crime and property-related incidents. However, the absence of a clear seasonal spike in overall crime suggests that Tiptree’s stability persists despite these fluctuations.

June 2023 saw sharp increases in three specific crime categories: Other theft, vehicle crime, and shoplifting, each rising by 500%, 200%, and 200% respectively. These jumps, particularly in Other theft, highlight a significant shift in the crime mix, with this category alone contributing 11.9% of all reported crimes. This spike in Other theft, which was previously recorded at just one incident in May, may be linked to seasonal factors such as increased foot traffic during the start of summer or changes in local business activity. Conversely, public order offences decreased by 42.9%, from seven to four incidents, a drop that may reflect the impact of local initiatives or heightened community engagement. The area’s violent crime rate, at 2.7 per 1,000 residents, is 8% below the UK average of 2.9 per 1,000, suggesting that while violence remains a concern, Tiptree’s rate is comparatively lower. This contrast is even more pronounced in anti-social behaviour, which is 39% below the UK average, indicating a potential strength in community cohesion or local policing strategies.

Tiptree’s crime rate in June 2023 rose by 47.6% compared to May 2023, moving from 4.9 to 7.3 per 1,000 residents. This increase, though notable, remains 14.1% below the UK average of 8.5 per 1,000. Daily crime counts reveal an average of two reported crimes per day in June, a figure that reflects the area’s relatively low overall rate. When scaled to the population of 8,131, the monthly exposure translates to one reported crime for every 138 residents—a statistic that, while not alarmingly high, underscores the need for continued community vigilance. This monthly aggregate does not account for the distribution of crimes across days or locations, meaning some periods may see spikes in activity. The comparison to the UK average also highlights Tiptree’s distinct profile: while violent crime rates are 8% below the UK average, the area’s ‘Other crime’ category is 500% above the national benchmark, suggesting a unique challenge in categorising and addressing these incidents. This divergence may reflect local factors, such as the nature of the built-up area’s infrastructure or community dynamics, which differ from broader national trends.
