Thrapston Crime Rate June 2024 | Monthly Statistics

Thrapston's crime rate in June 2024 remained markedly lower than the UK average, with 4.0 incidents per 1,000 residents compared to the national figure of 8.2. This 51.2% deficit underscores the area's overall safety. Anti-social behaviour led the breakdown with 25.7% of all crimes, followed by violence and sexual offences (22.9%) and burglary (14.3%). The seasonal context of June—longer daylight hours and the onset of summer—may have influenced activity patterns. Burglary, while rising sharply by 100% from zero to five incidents, still sits 100% above the UK average of 0.3 per 1,000. This discrepancy suggests local factors, such as property density or security measures, may contribute to the divergence. Meanwhile, anti-social behaviour and violence both showed significant reductions, linked to seasonal changes in community activity or enforcement efforts. The area's low crime profile, combined with these fluctuations, illustrates a dynamic environment where residents should remain vigilant about property-related risks while noting broader declines in other categories.

June 2024 saw a 100% increase in burglary cases, rising from zero to five incidents. This spike, though still below the UK average of 0.3 per 1,000, highlights a concerning trend for residents. Concurrently, shoplifting and other theft both doubled compared to May, suggesting potential vulnerabilities in local retail or public spaces. Violent crime, however, dropped by 52.9% to eight incidents, aligning with the UK average of 2.8 per 1,000. Vehicle crime also fell by 50%, remaining 33% below the national rate. Anti-social behaviour, the most common category, decreased by 18.2% to nine incidents, though it still trails the UK average by 29%. These shifts indicate a combination of seasonal factors and localised crime dynamics, with property-related offences emerging as a focal concern for residents.

Thrapston's crime rate in June 2024 stood at 4.0 per 1,000 residents, a 20.4% decrease from the previous month's 5.0 per 1,000. This reduction positions the area as safer compared to the prior month, though seasonal factors may influence this trend. On a daily basis, the area experienced approximately one crime per day over the 30-day period, translating to a monthly exposure of one reported crime for roughly every 250 residents. While this statistic provides a local context, it does not account for variations in population density or localised risk factors. The population of 8,738 means that crime incidents, while low in absolute terms, still represent a measurable presence within the community. The comparison to the UK average—51.2% below—suggests that Thrapston's overall crime environment remains significantly lower than national benchmarks, though specific categories like burglary show divergent patterns.
