Unfortunately, specific crime statistics for Penygroes for December 2025 are not available. However, we can provide an overview of the area’s crime data based on the information provided. Penygroes, a Built-Up Area (BUA) located in Gwynedd, has a population of 1751. The recorded crime rate for Penygroes is 112.5 incidents per 1,000 residents. This figure is notably higher than the UK national average, which stands at 91.6 incidents per 1,000 people.
This difference suggests a potentially higher risk of crime compared to the average UK community. It’s important to note that a crime rate is simply a ratio and doesn’t reveal the types of crimes occurring. The data doesn't specify whether these are violent crimes, property crimes, or other offences. Further investigation into the nature of these crimes would be necessary for a more comprehensive understanding of the situation.
Furthermore, Penygroes has a safety score of 72/100. The UK average safety score is 79/100. This lower score further reinforces the observation that Penygroes may present a slightly higher risk to residents compared to the average UK area. A safety score considers factors beyond just crime rates, such as perceptions of safety and the presence of community support systems.
It's crucial to remember that these statistics represent a snapshot in time and are based on reported crimes. Crime rates can fluctuate, and they don't always reflect the entire picture of community safety. Local authorities and community organisations are likely to have additional information and initiatives aimed at addressing crime and improving safety in Penygroes. For more up-to-date and specific crime data, it is recommended to consult official sources such as the Office for National Statistics (ONS) or the local police force for Gwynedd.
