North Wingfield and Holmewood Crime Rate June 2025 | Monthly Statistics

For a community of nearly 10,000 residents, 105 crimes in June 2025 translates to one reported crime for every 94 people over the course of the month. This rate of 10.6 per 1,000 residents places North Wingfield and Holmewood 30.9% above the UK average of 8.1 per 1,000, a significant disparity that may reflect local factors. The crime profile reveals a stark imbalance: violence and sexual offences dominate, comprising 50.5% of all incidents, followed by anti-social behaviour (19.1%) and other theft (7.6%). This concentration of violent crime contrasts sharply with the UK average, where such offences account for just 2.9 per 1,000. The area’s built-up character, likely featuring mixed-use spaces and community hubs, may contribute to the prominence of anti-social behaviour, which is itself 41% above the UK average. Meanwhile, shoplifting—a typically retail-driven offence—fell 52% below the UK rate, suggesting lower foot traffic or fewer commercial premises in the area. The seasonal context of June, with its extended daylight and early summer activities, may have amplified public interactions in local spaces, increasing opportunities for violent and disorderly incidents. However, the absence of specific data on events or population movements means this remains a tentative observation.

June 2025 saw a 55.9% surge in violence and sexual offences, rising from 34 to 53 incidents—a jump that may align with increased social activity during the summer months. Other theft, which includes burglary and vehicle-related theft, exploded by 300%, moving from two to eight cases. This sharp increase could indicate heightened vulnerability in specific locations, though without further data on property types or locations, the exact drivers remain unclear. Conversely, vehicle crime dropped by 33.3%, from three to two incidents, reflecting reduced car usage during warmer weather or improved security measures. The area’s violent crime rate is 89% above the UK average, with violence and sexual offences alone contributing 5.4 per 1,000 residents—more than double the national figure. Anti-social behaviour, at 2.0 per 1,000, is also 41% above the UK average, a pattern consistent with densely populated or socially mixed neighbourhoods. Residents might find the 52% below-average shoplifting rate noteworthy, as it suggests fewer retail premises or stronger local deterrence mechanisms. These shifts in crime mix highlight the need for targeted interventions, particularly in addressing the sharp rise in violent offences.

The crime rate in June 2025 (10.6 per 1,000) marks a 41.9% increase from the previous month’s rate of 7.5 per 1,000, a jump that translates to roughly 4 crimes per day in this built-up area. Over the course of June, one reported crime occurred for every 94 residents, a monthly exposure that is higher than the UK average but not immediately comparable without specific national figures. This local context suggests that residents face a higher risk of encountering crime than the national average, though the built-up nature of North Wingfield and Holmewood may inherently carry higher crime rates due to factors like population density and social mixing. The daily crime count of 4 per day provides a tangible benchmark for residents, illustrating the frequency of incidents in their daily lives. When scaled to the area’s population, the 10.6 rate implies that nearly 110 residents experience a crime each year—a figure that underscores the urgency of addressing the disproportionate rise in violent offences. While the UK average offers a general benchmark, localised factors such as community dynamics and infrastructure must be considered to fully contextualise these numbers.
