Coningsby and Tattershall Crime Rate March 2025 | Monthly Statistics

Coningsby and Tattershall's crime rate of 5.4 per 1,000 residents in March 2025 is 30.8% below the UK average of 7.8 per 1,000, placing it among the safer built-up areas in East Lindsey. This figure reflects a broader pattern of consistently low crime rates. increase from February's 3.4 per 1,000. The most prevalent crime type was violence and sexual offences (14 cases, 34.2% of total), followed by anti-social behaviour (10 cases, 24.4%) and vehicle crime (4 cases, 9.8%). These figures align with the area's character as a small, rural-adjacent community with limited commercial activity, which may contribute to lower property crime rates compared to more densely populated regions. Seasonal factors also appear to influence patterns: as March transitions to spring, the lengthening evenings may correlate with increased public order incidents and anti-social behaviour, though the overall rate remains below UK averages for these categories. Violence and sexual offences in the area are 34% below the UK average, suggesting effective local policing or community engagement strategies. The low burglary rate (64% below UK average) further reinforces the area's distinct profile, linked to its smaller population and lower density of high-value assets. These statistics illustrate a community where crime remains relatively rare, though targeted efforts to address emerging issues like drugs-related crimes may be necessary as the year progresses.

March 2025 saw significant increases in drugs-related crimes, public order offences, and other theft, each rising by 100% from February. This shift highlights a growing concern in these categories, though they remain below UK averages for drugs (11% above) and public order (45% below). The balance of crime types shifted notably: violent crimes (14, 34.2% of total) now outpace property crimes (12, 29.3% of total), a reversal from previous months. Anti-social behaviour, at 24.4% of total crimes, remains the second most common category but is only 4% above the UK average. These patterns suggest a combination of local dynamics and national trends, with the area's low burglary rate (64% below UK average) continuing to stand out as a key differentiator.

Coningsby and Tattershall's crime rate rose by 57.6% from 3.4 per 1,000 in February to 5.4 per 1,000 in March 2025. This increase, though notable, still leaves the area 30.8% below the UK average. Daily crime statistics show roughly one reported crime per day in March, a figure that may seem low but reflects the area's small population of 7,608 residents. Over the course of the month, one crime occurred for every 186 residents, a monthly exposure rate that underscores the relatively sparse nature of criminal activity in this built-up area within East Lindsey. While the rise from February is significant, the overall rate remains well below national levels, suggesting that local factors—such as community cohesion or policing strategies—may be contributing to sustained low crime despite seasonal fluctuations.
