Immingham Crime Rate September 2025 | Monthly Statistics

Immingham’s overall crime rate in September 2025 stood at 6.4 per 1,000 residents, 13.5% below the UK average of 7.4. This reflects a consistent trend of lower-than-national crime levels in the area, which aligns with its character as a built-up district within North East Lincolnshire—likely influenced by its industrial and commuter-oriented infrastructure. The top three crime types were violence and sexual offences (25 incidents, 37.9% of total), criminal damage and arson (11 incidents, 16.7%), and anti-social behaviour (9 incidents, 13.6%). These figures suggest a mix of personal and property-related issues, though the area’s crime profile remains significantly below the UK average for most categories. Seasonal factors in September, such as the start of the academic term and shorter evenings, may contribute to shifts in crime patterns, particularly in anti-social behaviour and public order offences. The relatively low rates of vehicle crime (0.2 per 1,000) and burglary (0.1 per 1,000) indicate a possible effectiveness of local deterrence measures, though the sharp rise in criminal damage and arson warrants further attention. This data underscores the need to balance localized initiatives with broader regional strategies to address specific vulnerabilities.

September 2025 saw the most dramatic shift in anti-social behaviour, which rose by 125% from 4 to 9 incidents—a stark contrast to other categories that declined. This spike, combined with 100% increases in bicycle theft and robbery, suggests a combination of seasonal and situational factors. Meanwhile, burglary, other theft, and vehicle crime all fell sharply, with burglary dropping by 83.3% (from 6 to 1). These decreases may reflect heightened community vigilance or seasonal inactivity linked to the start of the school term. Violent crimes, at 25 incidents, remained consistent with the area’s profile, though they were 7% below the UK average. Criminal damage and arson in Immingham (1.1 per 1,000) were 108% above the UK average, indicating a potential focus on property-related disputes. Residents might find the 1-in-157 monthly exposure figure useful for contextualizing local safety.

Immingham’s crime rate in September 2025 fell to 6.4 per 1,000 residents, a 17.5% decrease from 7.7 per 1,000 in August. This marks a notable decline, though the monthly exposure remains low: over the course of the month, one reported crime occurred for roughly every 157 residents. Daily crime counts averaged two per day, a figure that reflects the area’s generally low crime profile compared to national averages. The population context further illustrates this: with 10,380 residents, the 66 total crimes recorded represent a manageable proportion of the community. This drop aligns with patterns observed in similar built-up areas during the autumn transition, where reduced foot traffic and earlier evening hours may contribute to lower crime rates. However, the shift in crime types—such as the sharp rise in anti-social behaviour—suggests localized factors may be at play, requiring further analysis of community dynamics during this period.
