Chepstow Crime Rate October 2025 | Monthly Statistics

Chepstow's crime profile in October 2025 reveals a strikingly low overall rate of 0.3 per 1,000, placing it 96.1% below the UK average of 7.7 per 1,000. The sole category of crime recorded was anti-social behaviour, which accounted for all three reported incidents. This concentration of a single crime type—rather than a diverse mix of property, violent, or public order offences—suggests a community where crime is not a regular feature of daily life. The absence of other crime types may reflect Chepstow's small population, rural character, and possibly its location within Monmouthshire, where crime rates tend to be lower than in densely populated urban areas. Seasonal factors also appear to influence the crime mix: October's darker evenings and the Halloween holiday may have contributed to the rise in anti-social behaviour, though the overall rate remains exceptionally low. The lack of other crime types could indicate a strong sense of community, limited opportunities for property crime, or effective local policing. This data contrasts sharply with typical urban patterns, where theft, violence, and public order offences often dominate. The UK average for anti-social behaviour is 1.3 per 1,000, yet Chepstow's rate of 0.3 per 1,000 is 76% below that figure, further emphasizing the area's unique position. While the 100% increase in anti-social behaviour from September to October is notable, the overall crime rate remains an outlier in national comparisons, suggesting that Chepstow is a place where crime is not a defining aspect of the local environment.

The most striking shift in October 2025 was the 100% increase in anti-social behaviour, rising from 0 to 3 incidents. This category alone accounted for 100% of all reported crimes, a concentration far higher than the UK average of 1.3 per 1,000. The absence of other crime types—such as theft, violence, or burglary—contrasts sharply with typical urban patterns, suggesting a unique local dynamic. Anti-social behaviour in Chepstow was 76% below the UK average for this category, a figure that may reflect the area's low population density and strong community cohesion. Residents may find the 100% increase in anti-social behaviour particularly notable, though the overall rate remains exceptionally low compared to national benchmarks.

Chepstow's crime rate in October 2025 rose by 47.1% compared to September's 0.2 per 1,000.1% below the UK average.

Daily crime statistics show an average of 0 crimes per day, a figure that reflects the small population and sparse incidents recorded. When scaled to the local population of 11,961, this equates to a monthly exposure rate of 1-in-3987 residents, a ratio that highlights the rarity of crime in Chepstow compared to larger urban centres. This data suggests a community where crime is not a regular occurrence. increase from the previous month indicates a slight upward trend that warrants continued monitoring.
