Weybridge Crime Rate June 2025 | Monthly Statistics

June 2025 in Weybridge revealed a striking anomaly in crime patterns, with 'Other crime' surging by 400% and 'Possession of weapons' doubling compared to the previous month. This unexpected shift contrasts with the overall crime rate of 5.3 per 1,000 residents—34.6% below the UK average—highlighting a generally safer environment. The top crime types, violence and sexual offences (38.4% of total), anti-social behaviour (15.1%), and public order offences (10.5%), suggest a focus on interpersonal and community-level issues rather than property crime. Seasonal factors may play a role, as June marks the start of summer, a period typically associated with increased tourism and outdoor activity. However, the sharp rise in 'Other crime'—a category that includes unclassified offences—defies easy explanation, possibly reflecting underreported or evolving criminal behaviour. Meanwhile, property crime rates remained low, with burglary (3.5% of total) and shoplifting (2.3%) both significantly below UK averages. The area's relatively low violent crime rate, 30% below the UK average for violence and sexual offences, may be attributed to Weybridge's character as a commuter suburb with strong community policing and limited nightlife venues. These factors likely contribute to the lower incidence of violent crime, though the surge in 'Other crime' warrants further local analysis.

June 2025 saw a dramatic 400% increase in 'Other crime', rising from one to five incidents. This category, which includes unclassified or less common offences, marked the most significant month-on-month change. Simultaneously, possession of weapons rose by 100%, moving from zero to three reported cases—a stark contrast to the previous month. These spikes were accompanied by a 66.7% drop in shoplifting, which fell from six to two incidents, and a 40% decrease in burglary, from five to three cases. The shift in crime mix reveals a move away from property-related offences towards more varied and less typical categories. For residents, the 38.4% share of violent crimes—30% below the UK average—underscores a relatively safer environment for personal safety, despite the unexpected rise in 'Other crime' and weapon-related incidents.

Weybridge's crime rate remained stable in June 2025, matching the previous month's rate of 5.3 per 1,000 residents. This consistency suggests no significant short-term fluctuations in overall criminal activity. On a daily basis, the area experienced approximately three reported crimes per day, a figure that aligns with the low overall rate. Over the course of the month, one crime occurred for roughly every 190 residents, a monthly exposure rate that places Weybridge well below the UK average. With a population of 16,373, the local context means that the likelihood of encountering crime is relatively low compared to the national picture. The stability in crime rates contrasts with some categories showing marked shifts, particularly in property and violent crime distributions, but these are better explored in the highlights section.
