Conisbrough Crime Rate April 2025 | Monthly Statistics

Violence and sexual offences dominated Conisbrough's crime profile in April 2025, accounting for 39.6% of all reported crimes. This category, at 3.6 per 1,000 residents, sits 38% above the UK average of 2.6 per 1,000. Anti-social behaviour followed closely with 20.8% of total crimes, 43% above the UK norm. These figures highlight a stark contrast to the national trend, where violent crime typically constitutes around 30% of all reported incidents. The area's built-up character within Doncaster, combined with the Easter period's heightened public activity, may partly explain the elevated levels of interpersonal crime. Spring weather patterns, which often see increased outdoor engagement, could contribute to the 7.7% rise in criminal damage and arson cases compared to March. However, a direct link between seasonal factors and the 350% surge in 'other crime' cases, which remains an outlier requiring further scrutiny. Property crimes, while lower proportionally (23.8% of total), still represent a significant portion of local concerns, particularly with burglary and vehicle crime remaining above UK averages. The overall crime rate of 9.1 per 1,000 residents places Conisbrough 18.2 percentage points above the UK average, underscoring a need for targeted interventions in high-risk categories.

April 2025 saw a 350% increase in 'other crime' cases, rising from 2 to 9 incidents. This category, at 0.8 per 1,000 residents, is 371% above the UK average of 0.2 per 1,000. Conversely, vehicle crime fell 60% (from 10 to 4 cases), and other theft dropped 50% (from 4 to 2 cases). The shift in crime mix is notable, with violent crimes making up 39.6% of the total compared to 38% in the UK. Criminal damage and arson, while only increasing by 7.7% (13 to 14 cases), remains 128% above the UK average. These figures suggest a combination of factors, with the Easter period likely contributing to increased public space activity and associated risks. Residents may find the 50% reduction in vehicle crime particularly noteworthy, potentially linked to reduced foot traffic during the Easter holidays. The 371% disparity in 'other crime' compared to the UK average highlights a unique local challenge.

Conisbrough's crime rate in April 2025 (9.1 per 1,000) marked a 26.8% decrease from the previous month's 12.4 per 1,000. This monthly decline translates to roughly 3 crimes per day locally, a figure that would equate to one crime for every 110 residents over the course of the month. Compared to the UK average of 7.7 per 1,000, the area still maintains a 18.2 percentage point gap. The daily crime context reveals a persistent challenge, with 3 incidents per day occurring in a community of 11,103 residents. This frequency is significantly higher than the UK average when scaled to local demographics. The population-scaled perspective shows that, while the monthly decline is welcome, the rate remains elevated. For a resident, this means a 1-in-110 chance of being directly affected by a reported crime in April. The contrast with the UK average underscores the need for tailored approaches, as the local profile diverges significantly from national trends in both violent and property crime categories.
