Hinckley and Bosworth Crime Rate June 2025 | Monthly Statistics

Hinckley and Bosworth recorded a crime rate of 5.4 per 1,000 residents in June 2025, placing it 33.3% below the UK average of 8.1. This figure reflects a consistent trend of lower crime rates in the area, which is likely influenced by its character as a mixed-use local authority district with a blend of urban and rural elements. Violence and sexual offences dominated the crime profile, contributing 45.3% of all reported incidents, followed by anti-social behaviour at 14.4% and criminal damage and arson at 9.0%. These patterns align with the area's profile, where community-focused policing and local initiatives may play a role in mitigating violent crime. The seasonal context of June, with the onset of summer, may have contributed to the prevalence of certain offences, such as anti-social behaviour, which often spikes during warmer weather when public spaces are more frequently used. However, the overall rate remains lower than the UK average, suggesting effective local crime prevention strategies. The data also indicates a shift in crime types, with property-related crimes such as burglary and vehicle crime showing marked decreases compared to the previous month, reflecting seasonal changes in activity patterns or targeted interventions. While the area's crime rate is lower than the national average, the breakdown of offences provides a nuanced picture, highlighting both areas of success and ongoing challenges in maintaining public safety.

The most dramatic month-on-month change in June 2025 was a 60% decrease in burglary, with incidents falling from 45 to 18. This sharp decline, though not directly tied to specific events, may reflect seasonal factors such as increased outdoor activity or heightened community vigilance. Conversely, drug-related crimes rose by 23.1%, from 13 to 16, a shift that contrasts with the overall downward trend in most categories. Violence and sexual offences remained the most prevalent crime type, accounting for 45.3% of all incidents, but their rate of 2.5 per 1,000 was 13% below the UK average. Anti-social behaviour and criminal damage also showed significant gaps compared to national figures, with the former 44% below and the latter 14% below the UK average. These discrepancies highlight local factors, such as Hinckley and Bosworth's relatively stable community structures, which may contribute to lower rates of disorderly conduct and property damage.

Hinckley and Bosworth's crime rate in June 2025 dropped to 5.4 per 1,000 residents, a 15.7% decrease from the previous month's 6.4. This equates to roughly 21 crimes reported daily, a figure that translates to one crime occurring for every 184 residents over the course of the month. The reduction aligns with broader seasonal trends, as June marks the onset of summer, a period historically associated with shifts in crime patterns. While the daily crime count remains a local metric without a UK-wide counterpart, the monthly exposure statistic offers a tangible perspective for residents: the likelihood of encountering crime in Hinckley and Bosworth is significantly lower than the UK average, reflecting the area's distinct demographic and geographic profile. The drop in burglary, in particular, suggests a possible correlation with increased community engagement during the warmer months or enhanced policing efforts in high-risk areas.
