Tickhill Crime Rate March 2025 | Monthly Statistics

Tickhill’s crime profile in March 2025 reveals a marked contrast between its overall safety and specific outlier categories. With a crime rate of 4.7 per 1,000 residents—39.7% below the UK average—the area demonstrates a consistently lower-than-average exposure to crime. The most striking feature of this month’s data is the dominance of violence and sexual offences, which accounted for 44% of all crimes (11 incidents), significantly higher than the UK average of 23%. This overrepresentation may reflect the built-up nature of Tickhill within Doncaster, where concentrated populations and limited public spaces could contribute to higher rates of interpersonal conflict. Meanwhile, property crimes—split evenly between 11 violent and 11 property offences—suggest a balanced but not uniform distribution of criminal activity. Seasonal factors may also play a role: as March transitions to spring, the lengthening evenings and clock changes could influence both violent and property crime patterns, with increased visibility deterring some offences but also creating new opportunities for others. The UK average comparison further highlights areas of divergence, such as vehicle crime, which reached 5 incidents (1.0 per 1,000)—156% above the UK average. This anomaly may be tied to Tickhill’s location along key transport routes, where vehicle-related theft is more common. Conversely, anti-social behaviour and other theft both declined sharply, due to the area’s seasonal rhythms or local initiatives. These patterns illustrate the combination of geography, demographics, and time of year in shaping crime trends, even within a generally low-crime environment.

March 2025 saw sharp increases in vehicle crime (+150%), robbery (+100%), and bicycle theft (+100%), driven by a combination of seasonal activity and local patterns. These rises contrast with a 75% drop in other theft and a 50% decline in anti-social behaviour, suggesting a shift in criminal focus toward transport-related and personal property offences. Vehicle crime, at 5 incidents, now exceeds the UK average by 156%, a stark outlier in the data. This surge may be linked to the area’s proximity to major roads and the lengthening evenings of spring, which could encourage opportunistic theft. Conversely, the drop in anti-social behaviour—falling from four to two incidents—aligns with the transition to spring, when outdoor activity typically increases and community engagement may deter such behaviour. For residents, the spike in vehicle crime highlights the need for heightened awareness around car security, particularly in the town’s more traffic-heavy zones.

Tickhill's crime rate in March 2025 (4.7 per 1,000 residents) marks a 3.9% decline from February's 4.9 per 1,000, reflecting a slight but consistent trend in local crime management. On a daily basis, the area saw approximately one crime reported per day over the month—a figure that, while low, underscores the need for sustained vigilance. When scaled to the population of 5,277, this translates to one reported crime for every 211 residents over the course of March, a ratio that places Tickhill well below the UK average for similar areas. The population context further highlights the relatively low frequency of incidents: with fewer than 25 crimes reported in a month, the likelihood of any resident encountering crime remains minimal. This statistical profile suggests that Tickhill’s built-up environment within Doncaster maintains a safer-than-average profile, though the presence of specific crime types—such as vehicle crime and robbery—demands targeted attention.
