Warmsworth Crime Rate November 2025 | Monthly Statistics

Violence and sexual offences emerged as the dominant crime category in Warmsworth during November 2025, accounting for 39.8% of all reported incidents. This category alone was 25% above the UK average, a significant disparity that suggests localized factors may be contributing to the elevated rate. The overall crime rate of 8.1 per 1,000 residents places the area 11% above the national average, a figure that has remained consistent despite seasonal fluctuations. Anti-social behaviour followed closely, making up 16.3% of incidents and 23% above the UK average. These findings align with the area's built-up character within Doncaster, where high-density living and social interactions may amplify such crimes. The seasonal context of November—marked by Bonfire Night, Black Friday shopping, and extended darkness—likely played a role in shaping crime patterns. For instance, the sharp rise in criminal damage and arson (140% increase) may be directly tied to Bonfire Night events, while the drop in shoplifting could reflect reduced foot traffic during the month. However, the persistence of violent crime remains a challenge, with no clear seasonal mitigation observed. The breakdown also reveals that while shoplifting and vehicle crime were below the UK average, other categories like public order and possession of weapons were high. These trends suggest a combination of local dynamics, including the impact of nightlife and social gatherings in a built-up area. As November progresses into December, the continued monitoring of violent crime rates will be critical for understanding whether this pattern persists or shifts with changing social and environmental conditions.

Violence and sexual offences dominated Warmsworth's crime profile in November 2025, making up nearly 40% of all reported incidents. This category alone was 25% above the UK average, a stark contrast to shoplifting, which was 52% below national levels. Month-on-month, criminal damage and arson surged by 140%, jumping from five to 12 incidents—a sharp increase linked to Bonfire Night activities. Anti-social behaviour also doubled, rising from eight to 16 cases, possibly influenced by increased social gatherings during the festive season. Meanwhile, shoplifting and vehicle crime both fell by 57%, with shoplifting dropping from seven to three incidents, potentially reflecting reduced retail activity during November. These shifts highlight the seasonal impact of darker evenings and holidays on local crime patterns, though the persistence of violent crime remains a concern for residents.

Warmsworth's crime rate in November 2025 rose to 8.1 per 1,000 residents, a 3.2% increase from the previous month's 7.9. This places the area 11% above the UK average, a gap that has remained consistent in recent months. Daily crime figures show an average of three reported incidents per day, reflecting a persistent local challenge. Over the course of the month, one crime occurred for every 123 residents, a statistic that highlights the frequency of incidents within the built-up area. This monthly exposure rate, while not extreme, underscores the need for targeted community engagement. The population of 12,056 means each resident faces a slightly higher risk of experiencing crime than the UK average, particularly in violent and anti-social categories. Comparisons to the UK average reveal that while some crime types like shoplifting are below national levels, others—especially violence—remain significantly elevated, suggesting localized factors may be at play.
