St Agnes Crime Rate June 2023 | Monthly Statistics

For a population of 5,929 residents, St Agnes recorded just 7 crimes in June 2023, a figure that translates to a crime rate of 1.2 per 1,000 — 85.9% below the UK average of 8.5 per 1,000. This stark contrast highlights the area’s exceptional security, a pattern likely influenced by its rural character and limited urban density. The breakdown of crimes reveals that anti-social behaviour, violence and sexual offences, and criminal damage and arson each accounted for 28.6% of the total, with these categories collectively dominating the monthly tally. Anti-social behaviour, though rising by 100% from May, remains 80% below the UK average, a disparity that may be attributed to the area’s small scale and community-centric environment. The seasonal context of June — marking the start of summer and the beginning of tourist activity in Cornwall — could contribute to the types of incidents recorded. Violent crimes, while down by 50% compared to May, are still 90% below the UK average, suggesting that the built-up area’s low population density and strong community cohesion play a role in mitigating such incidents. The relatively low frequency of property crimes (2 incidents) further underscores the area’s safety profile, though the absence of detailed data on specific locations limits deeper analysis. As the longest days of the year begin, the combination of local demographics and seasonal rhythms appears to sustain a crime picture that is markedly safer than national benchmarks.

June 2023 saw a 100% increase in anti-social behaviour and criminal damage and arson, both rising from 1 to 2 incidents. This shift contrasts with a 50% decline in violence and sexual offences, which fell from 4 to 2. These changes suggest a temporary reallocation of criminal activity, though the overall volume remains exceptionally low. Anti-social behaviour, now accounting for 28.6% of all crimes, is 80% below the UK average of 1.5 per 1,000, a discrepancy that may reflect the area’s small population and limited public spaces. The category of criminal damage and arson also fell 53% below the UK average, a figure that could align with the area’s rural setting, where fewer structures may be targeted. For residents, the daily crime rate of 0 per day offers a clear indicator of the area’s low-risk profile, though the 100% increases in specific categories warrant attention to local factors such as seasonal tourism or community dynamics.

St Agnes reported 7 crimes in June 2023, translating to 0 crimes per day on average across the 30-day period. This daily figure underscores the exceptionally low frequency of criminal activity in the area, a trend consistent with the built-up area’s small population of 5,929 residents. Over the course of the month, one reported crime occurred for roughly every 847 residents, a statistic that frames the scale of risk in tangible terms for local residents. Comparing this to the previous month’s rate of 1.4 per 1,000, the current rate represents a 12.6% decrease, reflecting a sustained period of stability. While the UK average for crime stands at 8.5 per 1,000, St Agnes’ rate remains 85.9% below this benchmark, highlighting a stark contrast between the area’s security and national trends. The population-scaled perspective reinforces that the likelihood of encountering crime in St Agnes is significantly lower than in most other parts of the UK, a factor likely influenced by the area’s rural character and limited urban density.
