Conisbrough Crime Rate October 2024 | Monthly Statistics

Conisbrough's crime rate in October 2024 stood at 9.6 per 1,000 residents, placing it 18.5% above the UK average of 8.1 per 1,000. This figure reflects a marked increase compared to the previous month and underscores a challenging period for local law enforcement. The most prevalent category of crime was violence and sexual offences, accounting for 39.6% of all reported incidents, followed by anti-social behaviour at 20.8% and vehicle crime at 7.6%. These trends align with the area's built-up character within Doncaster, where high foot traffic and community interactions may contribute to higher rates of anti-social behaviour. Seasonal factors such as the transition to darker evenings in October likely played a role in the surge of public order offences, which saw a 166.7% increase compared to September. The area's violent crime rate of 3.8 per 1,000 residents is 42% above the UK average, a disparity that may be attributed to local social dynamics or demographic factors. Meanwhile, vehicle crime, though relatively low in absolute terms, showed an extraordinary 700% increase, linked to Halloween-related activities or changes in parking patterns. These statistics highlight the need for targeted interventions in areas where violent and anti-social crimes are concentrated, while also acknowledging the seasonal influences that shape crime trends in Conisbrough. The contrast between the area's crime profile and national averages suggests that local conditions, including the density of the built-up environment and the timing of events like Halloween, play a significant role in shaping the local crime profile.

October 2024 saw a dramatic surge in vehicle crime, which increased by 700% compared to the previous month, rising from one to eight incidents. This spike, coupled with a 166.7% increase in public order offences, suggests a shift in criminal activity that may be linked to seasonal factors such as Halloween and the transition to darker evenings. Meanwhile, anti-social behaviour remained the second most common category, contributing 20.8% of all crimes and 55% above the UK average. In contrast, drug-related crimes fell by 85%, dropping from 20 to three incidents, a decline that may reflect changes in law enforcement priorities or seasonal patterns. The area's violent crime rate of 3.8 per 1,000 residents is 42% above the UK average, indicating a persistent challenge in addressing aggression and sexual offences. These figures highlight a combination of local dynamics and broader national trends, with some categories showing stark divergence from the UK average.

Conisbrough's crime rate in October 2024 rose to 9.6 per 1,000 residents, a 26.2% increase from the previous month's rate of 7.6 per 1,000. This shift places the area 18.5% above the UK average, highlighting a growing divergence from national trends. On a daily basis, the area recorded approximately three crimes per day in October, a figure that, while not uncommon for built-up areas, underscores the need for continued vigilance. When scaled to the population of 11,103, the monthly exposure translates to one reported crime for every 105 residents, a statistic that illustrates the frequency of incidents within a typical household's experience. This monthly aggregate, while not directly comparable to UK-wide figures, offers a local perspective on how crime patterns unfold in Conisbrough. The contrast between October's figures and the previous month's data suggests a seasonal acceleration in certain crime types, particularly in public order and vehicle-related offences, which may be influenced by factors such as darker evenings and Halloween activities.
