Denbigh Crime Rate June 2025 | Monthly Statistics

In June 2025, Denbigh recorded 58 crimes across a population of 7,788, translating to a crime rate of 7.5 per 1,000 residents. This figure is 7.4% below the UK average of 8.1 per 1,000, placing the area in a relatively safer position compared to national trends. The most prevalent crime types were violence and sexual offences (23 incidents, 39.7% of total), anti-social behaviour (10 incidents, 17.2%), and other theft (8 incidents, 13.8%). These patterns align with the seasonal context of June, a month that marks the start of summer and the beginning of increased tourism in nearby rural and coastal regions. The high incidence of violence and sexual offences may be linked to the area’s built-up character, where higher population density and social interactions could contribute to such crimes. Conversely, the relatively low rates of vehicle crime and drug-related offences suggest that local policing efforts or community initiatives may be effectively addressing these issues. The seasonal context also raises questions about how summer activities, such as festivals or events, might influence crime trends in the coming months. While the overall rate remains below the UK average, the significant increase in public order offences and other theft highlights areas for targeted intervention.

June 2025 saw dramatic fluctuations in specific crime categories. Public order offences leapt by 500%, rising from one to six incidents, a jump that may reflect increased public gatherings or summer-related activities. Other theft also surged by 300%, with incidents rising from two to eight, a figure that significantly exceeds the UK average for this category. This contrast with the 50% decline in vehicle crime, which fell from two to one, suggests a possible reallocation of criminal activity toward public spaces. Anti-social behaviour dropped by 44.4%, from 18 to 10, a reduction that could indicate the success of local initiatives or seasonal changes in community dynamics. The UK comparison reveals stark disparities: while violence and sexual offences remain 5% above the national average, drugs-related crimes are 63% below, a gap that underscores the area’s unique challenges and strengths in crime prevention.

Denbigh’s crime rate in June 2025 dropped to 7.5 per 1,000 residents, a 4.9% decrease from the previous month’s 7.8 per 1,000. This reduction, though modest, reflects a trend that has continued into the summer season. Over the course of June, the area experienced an average of 2 crimes per day, a figure that may be influenced by seasonal shifts in activity patterns, such as increased tourism in nearby rural areas. When scaled to the local population of 7,788, this translates to one reported crime for roughly every 134 residents over the month. While this rate is slightly below the UK average, the monthly exposure figure offers a tangible perspective for residents: for every 134 people in Denbigh, one crime was recorded. This context helps frame the statistics as part of a broader, yet locally distinct, crime picture. The decline in vehicle crime by 50% and the drop in anti-social behaviour by 44.4% may signal changes in local policing strategies or community engagement efforts, though these remain speculative without further data.
