Lutterworth Crime Rate June 2023 | Monthly Statistics

In June 2023, Lutterworth's crime rate stood at 5.6 per 1,000 residents, placing it 34.1% below the UK average of 8.5 per 1,000. This lower rate translates to a daily risk of encountering crime that is significantly less than the national average, with approximately two crimes reported per day in the area. The most prevalent crime type was violence and sexual offences, accounting for 38.6% of all incidents, followed by public order offences (11.4%) and other theft (10.0%). These figures suggest a crime profile that is somewhat aligned with the UK's broader patterns, though with notable deviations in specific categories. For instance, anti-social behaviour rates in Lutterworth were 66% below the UK average, a disparity that may reflect the area's character as a smaller, more tightly knit community where such incidents are less common. Seasonal factors also appear to influence crime trends, as the start of summer could contribute to increased public order issues or changes in local activity patterns. However, the overall stability in the crime rate compared to the previous month indicates that no major spikes or dips have occurred, suggesting a consistent level of risk for residents. The relatively low burglary rate—38% below the UK average—may be attributable to the area's built-up nature, where properties are more likely to be occupied and monitored, reducing opportunities for such crimes. This combination of factors illustrates a town where crime is present but managed at a level that is well below national benchmarks, offering residents a sense of relative security despite the challenges of maintaining public safety in any community.

June 2023 saw a notable 100% increase in both robbery and theft from the person, with each category moving from zero to one reported incident. This shift underscores a potential rise in targeted crimes. Conversely, burglary cases fell by 57.1%, a significant decline that may reflect improved security measures or seasonal factors. The breakdown of crimes reveals that violence and sexual offences accounted for 38.6% of total incidents, a rate 25% below the UK average. Public order offences also showed a 10% deficit compared to national figures, suggesting a lower incidence of disruptive behaviour in the area. These variations highlight that while certain crime types align with broader UK trends, others deviate significantly, offering insights into local dynamics that may warrant further observation.

Lutterworth's crime rate remained stable at 5.6 per 1,000 residents in June 2023, matching the rate from the previous month. This consistency suggests no significant shifts in crime dynamics over the past two months. On a daily basis, the area experienced approximately 2 reported crimes per day, a figure that reflects the low overall rate relative to the UK average. When considering the monthly exposure, one crime occurred for every 178 residents in June, illustrating that the likelihood of encountering crime remains relatively low for individuals living in the area. This is particularly notable given the UK average crime rate of 8.5 per 1,000, which positions Lutterworth as significantly safer than the national benchmark. The population-scaled perspective further reinforces that the risk of experiencing a crime is minimal, with the majority of residents unlikely to face any incident during the month.
