East Horsley Crime Rate March 2025 | Monthly Statistics

In East Horsley, the per-capita perspective reveals a crime environment where the risk of encountering criminal activity is exceptionally low. With a crime rate of 1.4 per 1,000 residents in March 2025, the area is 82.1% below the UK average of 7.8 per 1,000, a disparity that translates to a drastically reduced likelihood of personal exposure to crime. The distribution of crimes shows a clear focus on property-related offences, with anti-social behaviour, other theft, and vehicle crime each accounting for 25% of the total. This pattern is consistent with the built-up nature of the area, where public spaces and transport infrastructure may contribute to specific crime types. The seasonal context of March — a time of transition to spring with longer evenings — could influence activity patterns, though the low overall rate suggests that factors such as effective local policing or community resilience are likely at play. Anti-social behaviour, the most frequently reported category, remains 68% below the UK average, indicating a possible success in managing public order. Meanwhile, the slight increase in vehicle crime (up 100% month-on-month) may reflect the area’s reliance on road networks or the timing of events during the spring period. For residents, this data reinforces that while crime is rarely encountered, targeted awareness — particularly around vehicle security — may be necessary given the recent shift in offence types.

March 2025 saw a 100% increase in vehicle crime, rising from 0 to 2 incidents. This surge, though small in absolute terms, marks a notable shift in the crime mix, which remains heavily skewed towards property offences (50% of total crimes) compared to violent crimes (25%). Anti-social behaviour, the most common single category, was 68% below the UK average, a statistic that aligns with the area’s likely emphasis on community policing or social cohesion. Meanwhile, vehicle crime’s 3% above the UK average (0.4 vs 0.4 per 1,000) suggests a local vulnerability, possibly linked to the built-up nature of East Horsley and its proximity to major roads or transport hubs. For residents, this means that while overall risk remains extremely low, vigilance around vehicle security may be prudent during the spring transition period.

East Horsley’s crime rate of 1.4 per 1,000 residents in March 2025 remained unchanged from February’s 1.4 per 1,000, indicating stability in local safety metrics. Daily crime figures show an average of 0 crimes per day across the 31-day period, reflecting a rare level of low activity for the area. When considering the population of 5,779 residents, the monthly exposure translates to one reported crime for every 722 residents — a statistic that underscores the rarity of incidents in this built-up area. This figure is particularly striking when compared to the UK average, where the same number of crimes would equate to a significantly higher proportion of the population. The stability in crime rates, despite a doubling of vehicle crime, suggests that local factors such as community engagement or environmental design may be mitigating broader risks. The low frequency of incidents means that most residents are unlikely to encounter crime in their daily lives, though the rise in vehicle-related offences warrants attention for specific at-risk groups.
