The question of what crime statistics were reported in Kimbolton in December 2025 can be answered by examining available data for the area. Kimbolton, classified as a Built-Up Area (BUA) in Huntingdonshire, had a population of 1724 as of the relevant period. The recorded crime rate for Kimbolton was 48.1 incidents per 1,000 residents. This is notably lower than the United Kingdom’s average crime rate, which stands at 91.6 incidents per 1,000 people.
This significant difference suggests a comparatively safer environment in Kimbolton. To further illustrate this, consider that for every 1000 residents in the UK, there are, on average, 91.6 reported crimes. In Kimbolton, this number is reduced to just 48.1 per 1000.
Beyond the raw crime rate, Kimbolton also boasts a Safety Score of 89 out of 100. This score, again, is considerably higher than the UK average of 79. The Safety Score is a composite measure likely considering factors beyond just reported crime, potentially encompassing perceptions of safety, community cohesion, and the presence of security measures.
It's important to note that crime statistics represent reported incidents and may not capture the full picture of criminal activity. They also fluctuate; however, the data available consistently paints a picture of Kimbolton being a relatively safe place to live, particularly when compared to the national average. Understanding these statistics can help residents and authorities work together to maintain and enhance the safety and wellbeing of the community.
