New Rossington and Rossington Crime Rate September 2025 | Monthly Statistics

For residents of New Rossington and Rossington, the crime rate in September 2025 translates to a daily risk of encountering one in every 151 residents reporting a crime—a figure that, while not negligible, remains comfortably below the UK average. The overall rate of 6.6 crimes per 1,000 residents, 10.8% lower than the national average of 7.4, suggests a relatively secure environment for this built-up area within Doncaster. The most common crimes were violence and sexual offences (35.9% of total cases), followed by criminal damage and vehicle crime, both of which exceeded UK averages. This pattern may reflect the area’s character as a mixed-use locality with retail and community hubs that could contribute to higher rates of property-related incidents. Seasonal factors in September—such as the return to school and university freshers’ week—likely influenced the spike in drugs-related offences, which rose sharply during the month. While the area’s lower-than-average violent crime rate offers reassurance, the elevated rates of criminal damage and vehicle crime highlight vulnerabilities tied to local infrastructure and traffic patterns. These findings underscore the need for targeted strategies to address specific risks while maintaining the area’s generally favourable crime profile.

September 2025 marked a stark shift in crime patterns, with drugs-related offences surging by 300% (1 to 4 cases) and public order violations also rising sharply (2 to 8 cases). This spike contrasts with a 43.8% decline in anti-social behaviour, which fell from 16 to 9 cases, possibly reflecting early-term adjustments in community activity. Vehicle crime and criminal damage remained elevated, with rates 125% and 70% above the UK average, respectively, suggesting ongoing challenges in property-related offences. Meanwhile, burglary saw a 100% increase (1 to 2 cases), though it remains significantly below the UK average. Residents may find the 7% reduction in violence and sexual offences (35.9% of total crimes) reassuring, but the 300% rise in drugs-related offences signals a need for targeted interventions in local hotspots.

In September 2025, New Rossington and Rossington saw a 17.2% decrease in crime rate compared to August, falling from 8.0 to 6.6 per 1,000 residents. This reduction aligns with the area’s broader trend of maintaining a crime rate 10.8% below the UK average. Locally, the monthly figure translates to roughly 3 crimes reported each day, a manageable frequency for a built-up area within Doncaster. Over the course of the month, one reported crime occurred for every 151 residents, a rate that suggests a relatively stable environment compared to the national average. While the population of 13,908 residents means individual risk remains low, the fluctuation in specific crime types—such as the sharp rise in drugs-related offences—highlights areas requiring closer attention. The contrast between the daily crime count and the UK-wide average, though not directly comparable, underscores the importance of local context in interpreting statistics.
