Tickhill Crime Rate September 2025 | Monthly Statistics

September 2025 marked a continuation of Tickhill’s trend toward lower-than-average crime levels, with a total crime rate of 4.6 per 1,000 residents—37.8% below the UK average of 7.4. This built-up area within Doncaster, home to 5,277 people, recorded 24 total crimes, split between property crimes (16) and violent crimes (6). Property offences, particularly burglary and vehicle crime, remained the most common category, though their rates were higher than the UK average for these specific subcategories. Violent crimes, however, fell significantly below the national benchmark, with violence and sexual offences at 1.1 per 1,000—57% lower than the UK average. The seasonal context of September, marked by the return to school and university freshers, likely influenced patterns, though no direct correlation to crime spikes was evident. The area’s lower violent crime rate may reflect its relatively quiet, residential character, with fewer nightlife venues or high-traffic commercial zones than larger urban centres. While property crime rates were elevated in certain categories, the overall picture suggests a community that remains safer than the UK average, albeit with pockets of concern requiring targeted attention.

September 2025 saw stark contrasts in crime trends, with criminal damage and arson surging by 300% compared to August, jumping from one incident to four. This spike, though small in absolute terms, raises questions about potential seasonal factors—such as the transition from summer to autumn, which may have increased incidents of vandalism or arson linked to local events or youth activity. Conversely, shoplifting plummeted by 80%, from five to one incident, possibly reflecting a quieter retail environment as schools and universities resumed operations, reducing foot traffic in commercial areas. Anti-social behaviour also dropped sharply by 75%, from four to one incident, aligning with the return of structured routines in the area. Meanwhile, violent crimes remained consistently below the UK average, with violence and sexual offences at 1.1 per 1,000—57% lower than the national rate. This suggests that Tickhill’s community dynamics, shaped by its smaller size and residential nature, contribute to lower levels of violent crime. However, property crimes such as burglary (up 50% from two to three incidents) and vehicle crime (doubling to four incidents) highlight areas needing closer monitoring, particularly as these categories exceeded UK averages by 114% and 100%, respectively.

Tickhill’s September 2025 crime rate of 4.6 per 1,000 represents an 11.1% decline from August’s 5.1, reflecting a continued downward trend. Over the course of the month, one reported crime occurred for roughly every 220 residents, illustrating a low but consistent level of exposure. Daily, the area experienced approximately one crime per day, a figure that, while modest, underscores the need for vigilance in maintaining community safety. When compared to the UK average, Tickhill’s overall rate remains significantly lower, but disparities emerge in specific categories. For instance, burglary rates are 114% above the UK average, suggesting that targeted prevention strategies may be necessary in homes or properties vulnerable to intrusions. Conversely, anti-social behaviour and shoplifting rates are 83% and 67% below the UK average, respectively, indicating that local factors—such as strong community cohesion or effective policing—may be mitigating these issues. The population-scaled perspective reveals that, despite its small size, Tickhill’s crime profile mirrors both national trends and local peculiarities, offering a nuanced view of safety that balances relative security with specific challenges.
