New Rossington and Rossington Crime Rate July 2024 | Monthly Statistics

New Rossington and Rossington recorded a crime rate of 7.8 per 1,000 residents in July 2024, placing the area 7.1% below the UK average of 8.4 per 1,000. This figure marks a 13.8% increase from June’s rate of 6.8, yet the area’s overall performance remains consistently lower than the national benchmark. The most prevalent crimes were violence and sexual offences, which accounted for 53.7% of all incidents, followed by public order (13%) and anti-social behaviour (12%). This pattern may reflect the area’s built-up nature and the influence of summer events, which can amplify public order issues while also drawing police resources to high-traffic zones. Violence and sexual offences in the area were 47% above the UK average, a discrepancy that could be partly explained by local demographics or the impact of festivals and open-air gatherings. Conversely, anti-social behaviour was 38% below the UK average, indicating effective community policing or strong neighborhood cohesion. The seasonal context of July—characterized by school holidays, tourism, and outdoor events—likely contributed to the fluctuation in crime types, with public order and violent offences seeing spikes amid increased foot traffic and social interactions. Despite these challenges, the area’s lower-than-average rates for anti-social behaviour, vehicle crime, and other theft suggest that local initiatives or environmental factors may be playing a role in moderating certain crime trends.

July 2024 saw a 50% decrease in bicycle theft, with incidents dropping from two to one—a significant reduction that may reflect heightened awareness during peak summer activity. Other theft also fell by 40%, from five to three, potentially linked to increased community engagement or local initiatives. However, other crime and possession of weapons both surged by 100%, with these categories doubling from single incidents to two each. This sharp increase in weapons possession, though small in absolute terms, could signal emerging trends requiring closer monitoring. Meanwhile, vehicle crime rose by 50%, tied to seasonal travel patterns or changes in parking behavior. The breakdown shows a stark contrast between local performance and UK averages: public order offences were 56% above the national rate, while anti-social behaviour was 38% below, illustrating the area’s unique crime profile shaped by its built-up character and seasonal context.

New Rossington and Rossington's crime rate in July 2024 rose by 13.8% compared to the previous month, moving from 6.8 to 7.8 per 1,000 residents. This increase, though notable, remains 7.1% below the UK average of 8.4 per 1,000. Locally, the daily crime count averaged three incidents per day, a figure that may reflect the area’s seasonal rhythm—July typically sees heightened activity due to festivals and school holidays. Over the course of the month, one reported crime occurred for roughly every 129 residents, a monthly exposure rate that underscores the relative safety of the area despite the upward trend. With a population of 13,908, the numbers scale to show that the majority of residents remain unaffected, though the rise in certain crime types warrants attention. The comparison to the UK average highlights a consistent pattern of lower violent crime but higher public order offences, which may be influenced by the area’s community dynamics and local policing strategies.
