Bradwell (Great Yarmouth) Crime Rate June 2025 | Monthly Statistics

Bradwell's crime profile in June 2025 reflects a continuation of its status as a low-crime built-up area within Great Yarmouth. The overall crime rate of 2.6 per 1,000 residents — 67.9% below the UK average of 8.1 — highlights the area's relative safety. Anti-social behaviour, the most prevalent category, accounted for 38.1% of all crimes, with 16 incidents reported. This rate, though 30% below the UK average for this category, saw a notable 128.6% increase from May, potentially linked to the start of summer and increased social activity in the coastal town. Violence and sexual offences, at 8 incidents (19.1% of total crimes), dropped sharply by 70.4% month-on-month, a shift that may align with seasonal patterns of tourism and longer daylight hours. Other theft, while a small proportion (7.1%), rose dramatically by 200% as the category moved from 1 to 3 incidents. The area's crime mix remains dominated by property-related offences (anti-social behaviour, burglary, other theft) rather than violent crimes, a trend consistent with the characteristics of a built-up coastal area where public spaces and retail presence may drive non-violent incidents. The low crime rate, combined with the UK comparison, suggests that Bradwell's environment — shaped by its proximity to Great Yarmouth's amenities and the seasonal rhythm of coastal tourism — continues to support a crime profile markedly safer than the national average.

The most dramatic month-on-month shift was the 128.6% increase in anti-social behaviour, rising from 7 to 16 incidents. This surge, while significant, still places the rate at 1.0 per 1,000 — 30% below the UK average for this category. Meanwhile, violence and sexual offences dropped by 70.4%, from 27 to 8, a decline that may reflect seasonal changes as summer tourism begins. Other theft saw a 200% increase, with cases tripling from 1 to 3, though this remains a small number in absolute terms. Burglary in Bradwell (4 incidents) is 7% above the UK average of 0.3 per 1,000, a discrepancy that could be attributed to the area's built-up nature and proximity to retail hubs. For residents, the 67.9% gap between Bradwell's overall rate and the UK average offers a tangible sense of relative safety, even as specific categories show fluctuating trends.

Bradwell's crime rate in June 2025 stood at 2.6 per 1,000 residents, a 17.7% decrease from the previous month's 3.2. This represents a local decline, though the area remains significantly below the UK average of 8.1. On a daily basis, the area recorded approximately one crime per day over the month, a figure that contextualises the low frequency of incidents for residents. When scaled to the population, the monthly exposure translates to one reported crime for roughly every 384 residents, a statistic that underscores the relatively safe environment in Bradwell compared to national benchmarks. The reduction from May to June aligns with seasonal patterns typical of coastal areas, where summer tourism and extended daylight hours may contribute to lower crime rates. The population context further highlights that even with the 42 total crimes, the impact on individual residents is minimal, reinforcing the area's status as a low-crime built-up zone within Great Yarmouth.
