Tetbury Crime Rate June 2025 | Monthly Statistics

Tetbury’s crime rate in June 2025 stood at 4.1 per 1,000 residents, a figure that is 49.4% below the UK average of 8.1 per 1,000. This stark contrast with national trends underscores the unique characteristics of this Cotswold town, where the built-up area’s compact size and historical charm may contribute to a lower crime environment. The breakdown of crimes reveals a striking dominance of violent offences, which accounted for 64.3% of all incidents—18 out of 28 total crimes. This focus on violent crime contrasts with the UK average, where property-related offences typically constitute a larger share. Anti-social behaviour followed closely, making up 25.0% of reported incidents, while property crimes remained minimal, with only one recorded case. The seasonal context of June—marking the start of summer and the longest days—may have influenced these patterns, as increased foot traffic in Tetbury’s historic town centre could heighten interactions that sometimes lead to conflicts. However, the absence of high-density commercial areas may also limit opportunities for theft or burglary, contributing to the overall lower crime rate. The data also highlights a 9% deficit in violent crime rates compared to the UK average (2.6 vs 2.9 per 1,000), a trend consistent with Tetbury’s rural character and relatively stable community dynamics. These factors collectively illustrate a town where crime, while present, remains a rare occurrence compared to larger urban centres.

June 2025 saw a marked shift in crime patterns, with violent crimes accounting for 64.3% of all reported incidents—significantly higher than the UK average for this category (2.9 per 1,000). This dominance of violent offences contrasts with the UK-wide trend, where property crimes typically outnumber violent ones. Among the month-on-month changes, anti-social behaviour fell by 22.2% (from 9 to 7 incidents), while other theft dropped sharply by 75.0% (from 4 to 1). This reduction in anti-social behaviour may reflect seasonal factors, as the start of summer often sees increased community engagement and outdoor activity in Tetbury’s historic town centre. Conversely, drugs-related crimes saw a 100.0% increase, rising from 0 to 1 incident, a rare uptick that deserves closer attention. Despite this, Tetbury’s overall crime rate remains 49.4% below the UK average, highlighting the area’s consistently safer environment compared to national trends.

Tetbury's crime rate in June 2025 fell to 4.1 per 1,000 residents, a 33.3% decrease from the previous month's 6.1 per 1,000. This decline aligns with the area's historically low crime profile, which has consistently remained well below national averages. On a daily basis, the town recorded one reported crime per day in June, a figure that translates to a monthly exposure of one crime for every 246 residents. Considering Tetbury's population of 6,880, this suggests that the likelihood of encountering crime is significantly lower than in larger urban areas. The shift in crime mix also reflects broader patterns, with anti-social behaviour and violent crimes dominating over property-related offences. This contrast with the UK average underscores the unique characteristics of Tetbury, where the absence of high-density commercial zones may reduce opportunities for certain types of crime. However, the relatively low population density also means that incidents are more visible and potentially impactful when they occur, requiring continued community vigilance.
