Conisbrough Crime Rate November 2024 | Monthly Statistics

Conisbrough’s crime rate in November 2024 stood at 9.6 per 1,000 residents, placing it 26.3% above the UK average of 7.6 per 1,000. This discrepancy, while concerning, is consistent with the area’s urban character within Doncaster, where higher population density and built-up environments may contribute to elevated rates of certain crimes. Violence and sexual offences accounted for 34% of all reported crimes, followed by anti-social behaviour (18.9%) and burglary (9.4%). These figures align with seasonal patterns in November, including the lead-up to Bonfire Night, which may have amplified anti-social behaviour, and the Black Friday shopping period, which could have influenced retail-related crimes. The area’s violent crime rate (3.2 per 1,000) is 24% above the UK average, a gap that may be partly explained by the concentration of social hubs and public spaces in the built-up area. Similarly, anti-social behaviour’s 62% overperformance relative to the UK suggests that community engagement and policing efforts in public areas may need recalibration. Burglary, at 190% above the UK average, could be linked to the area’s proximity to commuter routes and the presence of residential properties with potential vulnerabilities. These patterns highlight the need for targeted interventions, particularly during months with heightened seasonal activity.

November 2024 saw sharp increases in specific crime types, including possession of weapons (up 100%), shoplifting (up 100%), and other crime (up 100%), all of which were previously unreported. These jumps, while statistically significant, may be influenced by seasonal factors such as Bonfire Night and the heightened visibility of illicit activities during darker evenings. Conversely, other theft decreased by 42.9%, potentially reflecting successful community initiatives or shifts in criminal focus. The area’s violent crime rate (3.2 per 1,000) is 24% above the UK average, while anti-social behaviour (1.8 per 1,000) is 62% above, highlighting areas where local enforcement may need to intensify. Burglary (0.9 per 1,000) is 190% above the UK average, a disparity that could be linked to the built-up nature of Conisbrough and its proximity to high-traffic commuter routes.

Conisbrough's crime rate in November 2024 remained stable compared to the previous month, holding at 9.6 per 1,000 residents. This consistency suggests no immediate spikes or drops in criminal activity, though the rate remains higher than the UK average. Locally, this equates to approximately four reported crimes per day, a figure that, while modest, reflects persistent challenges in certain crime categories. Over the course of the month, one in every 105 residents experienced a reported crime, a monthly exposure rate that underscores the need for sustained community vigilance. With a population of 11,103, the area’s crime profile is shaped by its built-up character within Doncaster, where urban density may contribute to higher rates of anti-social behaviour and property crime compared to more rural or suburban settings. The daily crime count, while low in absolute terms, remains a focal point for local policing strategies, particularly given the disproportionate overperformance in categories like burglary and vehicle crime relative to national trends.
