Mynydd Isa Crime Rate December 2025 | Monthly Statistics

In December 2025, Mynydd Isa maintained a crime rate of 3.9 per 1,000 residents, placing it 44.3% below the UK average of 7.0 per 1,000. This rate translates to roughly one reported crime for every 256 residents over the course of the month, a figure that contextualises risk in everyday terms. The most prevalent crime type was violence and sexual offences, which accounted for 36.4% of all reported incidents. This was followed by anti-social behaviour (31.8%) and public order offences (18.2%), highlighting a pattern of interpersonal and community-level issues rather than property-focused crime. Seasonal factors likely contributed to these patterns, with the month’s dark evenings, Christmas shopping activity, and potential empty homes during holidays creating conditions conducive to certain types of crime. Violence and sexual offences in Mynydd Isa were 46% below the UK average, suggesting localised factors—such as community cohesion or policing strategies—may be playing a role in mitigating this category. However, anti-social behaviour and public order offences were above the UK average, indicating areas where targeted interventions could be beneficial. The low property crime rate (4.6% of all crimes) contrasts with national trends, reflecting either strong community vigilance or environmental factors that deter burglary and theft. These patterns suggest that while Mynydd Isa remains relatively safe compared to the UK as a whole, specific challenges related to community behaviour and public order require attention.

December 2025 saw significant fluctuations in crime types, with anti-social behaviour surging by 133.3% (from 3 to 7 incidents) and public order offences doubling (from 0 to 4). These increases align with the season’s social dynamics, such as increased alcohol consumption during festive events and the challenges of managing public spaces in darker conditions. Conversely, violence and sexual offences decreased by 38.5% (from 13 to 8), possibly reflecting a combination of holiday-related social caution and effective policing during peak times. Other theft fell sharply by 66.7% (from 3 to 1), which may indicate improved security measures or reduced opportunities for theft during the holiday season. When compared to the UK average, Mynydd Isa’s violence and sexual offence rate was 46% lower, but its anti-social behaviour rate was 29% higher, underscoring the need for tailored approaches to address localised issues. The burglary rate in Mynydd Isa was 29% below the UK average, a statistic that may be attributed to the area’s smaller, more closely-knit community structure, which could deter opportunistic crime. These shifts in crime patterns highlight both the effectiveness of existing measures and the areas where further action could be needed to maintain the area’s overall safety.

December 2025 saw Mynydd Isa’s crime rate decline by 4.4% compared to the previous month, dropping from 4.1 to 3.9 per 1,000 residents. This slight reduction, while modest, reflects a consistent trend in the area’s overall safety. On a daily basis, the month averaged one reported crime per day—a figure that, while low, is a tangible reminder of the risks residents face in their local environment. When scaled to the population, the monthly exposure rate of one crime per 256 residents provides a clearer picture of how infrequent crime is in Mynydd Isa relative to the UK average. This statistic is particularly meaningful for residents, as it illustrates that the likelihood of experiencing a crime is significantly lower than in many other parts of the country. The previous month’s rate of 4.1 per 1,000 was only marginally higher, suggesting that the area’s crime dynamics are relatively stable. However, the month-on-month changes in specific crime types—such as the sharp rise in anti-social behaviour—indicate that while the overall rate may be declining, certain issues require targeted attention. These comparisons highlight that Mynydd Isa’s crime profile is shaped by a combination of local factors and broader seasonal influences, making it a unique case within the UK’s broader crime profile.
