Coningsby and Tattershall Crime Rate June 2024 | Monthly Statistics

Violence and sexual offences dominated the crime profile in Coningsby and Tattershall during June 2024, accounting for 46.4% of all reported crimes. With a crime rate of 9.1 per 1,000 residents—11% above the UK average of 8.2—this built-up area within East Lindsey faces a distinct challenge in addressing violent incidents. The data highlights a stark contrast between property crimes, which accounted for just 26% of all reported incidents, and the prevalence of violent offences, which suggests a significant shift in criminal activity patterns. This imbalance may be influenced by the area’s seasonal dynamics, as June marks the start of summer, a period associated with increased foot traffic, longer daylight hours, and the potential for heightened social interactions that could contribute to such crimes. The UK average for violence and sexual offences stands at 2.8 per 1,000, yet Coningsby and Tattershall’s rate of 4.2 per 1,000 indicates a 52% excess, a figure that may reflect localised factors such as community demographics, localised pressures, or specific environmental conditions. Meanwhile, anti-social behaviour, though lower than the UK average, remains a persistent concern, contributing 14.5% to the overall crime rate. The seasonal context of June—typically a time of increased tourism and leisure activity—may play a role in shaping these trends. The overall crime rate’s 11% deviation from the national average underscores the need for targeted strategies to address the area’s unique crime profile, particularly in mitigating the high incidence of violent offences.

June 2024 saw a stark rise in burglary, with incidents increasing by 300% compared to the previous month, moving from one to four reported cases. This surge, coupled with a 300% rise in criminal damage and arson, points to a shift in criminal focus that may be influenced by seasonal factors such as increased outdoor activity or property visibility during longer daylight hours. Conversely, anti-social behaviour decreased by 33.3%, dropping from 15 to 10 incidents, a change that could reflect heightened community vigilance or targeted policing efforts. The breakdown of crime types reveals that violence and sexual offences—accounting for 46.4% of all incidents—exceeded the UK average by 52%, a disparity that may be linked to the area’s specific social dynamics or localised challenges. Shoplifting incidents were 35% below the UK average, suggesting a lower prevalence of retail-focused crimes in this built-up area compared to the national trend.

The crime rate in Coningsby and Tattershall rose to 9.1 per 1,000 residents in June 2024, marking a 23.2% increase from the previous month’s rate of 7.4 per 1,000. This shift raises questions about seasonal influences or changes in local activity patterns. On a daily basis, the area experienced approximately 2 crimes per day in June, a figure that, while modest, reflects a consistent presence of criminal activity within this built-up area. Over the course of the month, one reported crime occurred for roughly every 110 residents, highlighting the frequency of incidents relative to the population. Given the area’s 7,608 residents, this rate translates to a monthly exposure that may concern local households, particularly when considering the 11% increase above the UK average. The population-scaled perspective underscores the importance of community awareness and targeted policing efforts, though direct links between these factors and the observed trends. The comparison to the previous month’s figures suggests a need for closer monitoring of emerging patterns, especially in light of June’s seasonal dynamics.
