Tickhill Crime Rate January 2025 | Monthly Statistics

Violence and sexual offences, alongside anti-social behaviour, dominate Tickhill's crime profile in January 2025, accounting for nearly 60% of all reported incidents. With a crime rate of 3.2 per 1,000 residents, the area remains 54.9% below the UK average of 7.1 per 1,000. This stark contrast to national trends reflects Tickhill's relatively low population density and limited commercial activity compared to major urban centres. The post-holiday period in January typically sees reduced retail footfall, which likely contributes to the lower incidence of shoplifting and vehicle-related crimes. However, the absence of significant seasonal events or major infrastructure projects means the area's crime patterns remain stable year-round. Violence and sexual offences, though lower than the UK average, remain the most frequently reported category, suggesting persistent challenges in community safety. Anti-social behaviour, while slightly above the UK average, shows a complex relationship with local demographics, potentially linked to the area's mix of residential and industrial land use. The overall crime rate, though historically low, underscores the importance of maintaining community engagement initiatives that have kept incidents below national benchmarks despite the built-up nature of the area.

January 2025 saw a marked shift in crime dynamics, with public order offences surging by 100% (from 0 to 1 incident) and other crime categories also rising by 100% (from 0 to 1). This increase, though small in absolute terms, highlights emerging patterns that warrant closer attention. Anti-social behaviour rose by 66.7% compared to December, reflecting possible tensions during the post-holiday period when community interactions intensify. Conversely, burglary fell sharply by 50%, from 4 to 2 incidents, aligning with the seasonal context of reduced retail activity and fewer opportunities for opportunistic crimes. The violence category, at 5 incidents, remains 60% below the UK average of 2.5 per 1,000, illustrating a consistent safety advantage in this area. Anti-social behaviour, while slightly above the UK average (1.0 vs 1.0 per 1,000), shows a nuanced picture where local community policing efforts may be offsetting broader national trends. These fluctuations, though modest, provide residents with actionable insights: increased public order incidents suggest a need for targeted engagement in high-traffic areas during January, while the burglary decline reinforces the effectiveness of existing security measures in the area.

Tickhill's crime rate in January 2025 (3.2 per 1,000) represents a 29.2% decrease from December's 4.6 per 1,000, reflecting a sustained downward trend that has likely been reinforced by seasonal factors. Translating this into daily context, the area experienced approximately one crime per day over the 31-day period, a frequency that, while non-zero, remains significantly lower than the national average. On a monthly basis, the 17 reported crimes equate to one incident for every 310 residents, a ratio that underscores the area's relative safety despite its built-up nature. This exposure figure is particularly noteworthy when compared to larger urban centres where monthly rates often exceed 10 per 1,000. The population-scaled perspective reveals that Tickhill's small size (5,277 residents) amplifies the visibility of each incident, making community cohesion and local policing efforts even more critical. While the drop from December is encouraging, the 54.9% gap to the UK average indicates that Tickhill's low crime environment is not merely a temporary phenomenon but a structural characteristic shaped by its unique demographic and geographic profile.
