East Riding of Yorkshire Crime Rate November 2025 | Monthly Statistics

East Riding of Yorkshire's November 2025 crime rate of 4.5 per 1,000 residents places the area 38.4% below the UK average, underscoring its status as a relatively low-crime region. The most prevalent crime category was violence and sexual offences, which accounted for 47.2% of all reported incidents. This dominance of violent crime is notable, as it contrasts with the UK average where such offences typically make up a smaller proportion of the total. The second and third most common crimes were public order and criminal damage, both of which also fell significantly below national averages. This pattern may be influenced by the area's mix of urban and rural characteristics, where public spaces in towns like Hull might see higher concentrations of violent incidents, while rural areas contribute to lower rates of property-related crimes. Seasonal factors in November, including the darkening evenings and the proximity of Bonfire Night, may have played a role in shaping the crime profile, increasing public order incidents during fireworks events. However, the overall trend of low crime remains consistent with the district's historical performance, suggesting a combination of effective policing strategies and community engagement efforts that help maintain this favourable position relative to the UK as a whole.

November 2025 saw notable shifts in the crime mix across East Riding of Yorkshire. The category of 'other crime' rose by 25.0%, marking the largest single-month increase among reported incidents. This rise, coupled with a 16.7% increase in bicycle theft, may be influenced by seasonal factors such as the Black Friday shopping period, which typically sees heightened retail activity. Conversely, anti-social behaviour fell by 34.1%, a drop that could reflect the impact of local initiatives or the seasonal closure of certain public spaces during darker evenings. The area's violent crime category, which accounts for 47.2% of all reported crimes, remains 18% below the UK average for violence and sexual offences. This consistent gap highlights the district's relative success in managing violent crime compared to national trends.

East Riding of Yorkshire's crime rate in November 2025 stood at 4.5 per 1,000 residents, an 8.1% decrease from the previous month's rate of 4.9. This decline aligns with a broader trend observed in the area, where the overall crime picture remains significantly below the UK average. Over the course of November, one reported crime occurred for roughly every 222 residents, a figure that contextualises the monthly exposure in a way that reflects the area's population scale. With 355,884 residents, the daily crime count of 54 incidents per day translates to a manageable frequency relative to the size of the district. This suggests that while crime is not absent, its presence is proportionally lower than in many other parts of the country, offering a comparative advantage for residents and visitors alike.
