Coningsby and Tattershall Crime Rate November 2024 | Monthly Statistics

Coningsby and Tattershall’s crime rate of 8.7 per 1,000 residents in November 2024 places the area 14.5% above the UK average, reflecting a combination of local factors and broader trends. The most prevalent crimes were violence and sexual offences (47% of all incidents), followed by anti-social behaviour (16.7%) and vehicle crime (9.1%). These figures align with seasonal patterns, as the month coincided with darker evenings, Bonfire Night, and the Black Friday shopping period—conditions that may contribute to heightened tensions and opportunities for crime. The spike in violent offences, which are 59% above the UK average for this category, raises questions about the role of local demographics and social dynamics in shaping criminal activity. Anti-social behaviour, another major contributor, was 35% above the national average, potentially linked to the area’s built-up nature and the challenges of managing community spaces during colder months. Vehicle crime, though lower than the UK average for this category, still showed an 82% excess, which may be explained by the presence of commuter routes or car parks near local amenities. These trends underscore the need for targeted interventions and community engagement to address the specific risks faced by residents in this East Lindsey locale.

November 2024 saw a 300% increase in burglary cases, rising from one to four incidents—a stark shift that may reflect seasonal factors like increased home occupancy during the holiday period. Public order offences also doubled, climbing from one to three, potentially linked to the darker evenings and Bonfire Night celebrations. Violence and sexual offences surged by 138.5%, jumping from 13 to 31 cases, a figure that is 59% above the UK average for this category. This spike contrasts with declines in shoplifting (25% drop) and other theft (50% drop), which may indicate a seasonal shift in criminal activity. Vehicle crime fell by 33.3%, due to reduced traffic or changes in parking patterns during the month. These fluctuations highlight the volatility of crime in the area and the need for residents to remain vigilant during periods of increased social activity.

In November 2024, Coningsby and Tattershall’s crime rate of 8.7 per 1,000 residents marked a 73.9% increase from October’s 5.0 per 1,000. This surge translates to roughly two crimes reported per day in the built-up area—a local figure that highlights the immediate risk faced by residents. Over the course of the month, one crime was reported for every 115 residents, a monthly exposure rate that underscores the frequency of incidents within the community. While the daily crime count remains relatively low compared to larger urban centres, the sharp rise in violent and property crimes from the previous month suggests a shift in local dynamics. The population of 7,608 means that each resident faces a higher-than-average risk compared to the UK as a whole, with specific categories like violence and sexual offences far exceeding national benchmarks. This comparison invites consideration of how local factors, such as seasonal events or community patterns, might interact with broader trends in crime reporting.
