Chepstow Crime Rate November 2025 | Monthly Statistics

Chepstow’s crime rate in November 2025 stood at 0.2 per 1,000 residents, a figure that is 97.3% below the UK average of 7.3 per 1,000. This stark contrast to national trends underscores the area’s unique position as one of the safest in the UK. The sole reported crime category, anti-social behaviour, accounted for 100% of all incidents, with two cases recorded—a rate of 0.2 per 1,000 residents. This category’s rate was itself 81% below the UK average for anti-social behaviour, which stands at 1.1 per 1,000. Seasonal factors likely influenced these figures; November’s shorter evenings and the absence of major holidays such as Christmas may have reduced opportunities for certain types of crime. The area’s low population density and limited urban infrastructure further contribute to its crime profile, which lacks the property crime or violent crime spikes seen in more densely populated regions. While anti-social behaviour remains the sole focus, the absence of other crime types suggests a broader systemic success in managing low-level incidents, though this may also reflect underreporting or a lack of policing resources in certain areas. The data aligns with Chepstow’s character as a small, rural-adjacent built-up area, where community cohesion and limited commercial activity may naturally suppress crime rates.

November 2025 saw a 33.3% decrease in anti-social behaviour, the sole crime category reported, dropping from 3 incidents in October to 2 in November. This decline, though modest in absolute terms, marks a significant shift in the local crime mix, with anti-social behaviour accounting for 100% of all reported crimes. The category’s rate of 0.2 per 1,000 residents was 81% below the UK average of 1.1 per 1,000, reinforcing Chepstow’s position as an outlier in national crime statistics. The absence of other crime types—such as burglary or violence—suggests a crime profile heavily skewed toward low-level, community-based incidents. For residents, this means a focus on addressing anti-social behaviour remains critical, even as the area’s overall safety metrics remain exceptionally strong compared to the UK.

Chepstow's crime rate in November 2025 remained at 0.2 per 1,000 residents, a 32.0% decrease from the previous month’s rate of 0.3 per 1,000. This decline aligns with broader seasonal trends, as November’s shorter evenings and reduced foot traffic in retail areas may partly explain the drop. Over the course of the month, one reported crime occurred for every 5,981 residents, highlighting the area’s exceptionally low monthly exposure to crime. Daily crime counts averaged roughly zero incidents per day, a figure that contrasts sharply with the UK average but reflects Chepstow’s unique demographic and geographic profile. The population-scaled perspective underscores that, for residents, the likelihood of encountering crime is significantly lower than in most other parts of the UK, though this remains a localised statistic with no direct UK-wide comparator. These figures suggest a consistent pattern of low-level crime management, likely influenced by the area’s small population and limited urban infrastructure.
