Killamarsh Crime Rate June 2025 | Monthly Statistics

The balance between property and violent crime in Killamarsh during June 2025 reveals a distinct pattern in the area’s crime profile. For the first time this year, property crimes (11 incidents) and violent crimes (11 incidents) are equally represented, a shift from earlier months where property crime typically dominated. This parity may reflect seasonal dynamics: the start of summer, with longer daylight hours, could have altered activity patterns in the built-up area, increasing opportunities for both types of crime. The overall crime rate of 3.7 per 1,000 residents places Killamarsh 54.3% below the UK average of 8.1 per 1,000, a gap consistent with the area’s historically lower crime levels. Violence and sexual offences remain the most prevalent category, accounting for 36.7% of all crimes reported, followed by anti-social behaviour (16.7%) and criminal damage and arson (13.3%). These figures align with the characteristics of a mid-sized built-up area within North East Derbyshire, where community cohesion and limited commercial density may contribute to lower rates of violent crime compared to larger urban centres. Seasonal factors, such as the gradual increase in tourism during June, could also influence crime patterns. The data underscores that while Killamarsh’s crime rate remains significantly below national averages, the equal split between property and violent crime deserves closer attention to local conditions that might be reshaping crime dynamics.

June 2025 saw notable shifts in crime patterns, with criminal damage and arson incidents surging by 300% (from 1 to 4) and robbery doubling (from 0 to 1). These increases contrast sharply with decreases in public order offences (-71.4%) and other theft (-66.7%), suggesting a reallocation of criminal activity. The balance between property and violent crimes—each accounting for 11 incidents—marks a departure from earlier months, where property crime typically outnumbered violent crime by a margin. This parity may reflect the impact of seasonal factors, such as increased outdoor activity during longer summer days. Violence and sexual offences in Killamarsh remain 55% below the UK average (2.9 per 1,000), while anti-social behaviour is 58% below the national rate (1.4 per 1,000). These figures highlight the area’s relative safety, though the rise in criminal damage and arson could signal localized pressures, such as targeted vandalism or disputes over property. Residents might find the 54.3% gap between Killamarsh’s crime rate and the UK average a useful context for understanding the area’s security profile.

Killamarsh’s crime rate in June 2025 (3.7 per 1,000) marks a 31.8% decline from the previous month’s rate of 5.4 per 1,000, a reduction that reinforces the area’s position as significantly safer than the UK average. On a daily basis, the 30 total crimes reported over 30 days equate to roughly one crime per day, a figure that, while low, may still prompt community vigilance. When scaled to the population of 8,187 residents, this translates to one reported crime occurring for every 273 residents over the course of the month—a monthly exposure rate that is markedly lower than national benchmarks. This statistic provides a tangible measure of risk for residents, emphasizing that the likelihood of encountering crime in Killamarsh remains relatively minimal. The decline from May to June also suggests that seasonal transitions, such as the end of the Easter holiday period or the onset of warmer weather, may have contributed to a temporary reduction in certain crime types. However, the absence of a UK-wide daily crime comparison means this local figure must be interpreted independently, underscoring the importance of focusing on Killamarsh-specific trends rather than extrapolating from national data.
