Coalville Crime Rate November 2025 | Monthly Statistics

In November 2025, Coalville’s crime rate of 7.9 per 1,000 residents placed it 8.2% above the UK average, a figure that may seem abstract but translates to everyday risks for residents. With one reported crime occurring for every 126 residents over the month, the statistics reveal a pattern where proximity to public spaces and services—hallmarks of a built-up area—can amplify exposure to certain crimes. The top three crime types—violence and sexual offences (34.7% of total), criminal damage and arson (13.8%), and anti-social behaviour (12.6%)—illustrate a landscape shaped by both social interactions and environmental factors. Violence, at 2.8 per 1,000, was 9% above the UK average, a disparity consistent with the area’s character as a commuter hub where transient populations and late-night activity may contribute to higher rates. Criminal damage and arson, occurring at 108% above the UK average, could reflect issues related to property maintenance or targeted vandalism in specific neighbourhoods. Anti-social behaviour, though lower than the UK average, still highlights challenges in managing public conduct. Seasonal factors such as dark evenings, Bonfire Night, and Black Friday shopping likely played a role in elevating violent and public order crimes, while the reduced burglary rate may indicate a temporary lull in property-related incidents. These patterns underscore how local geography, demographics, and temporal rhythms intersect with crime, offering a nuanced view of safety for residents.

November 2025 saw sharp increases in two categories: other crime and drugs, both surging by 300% and 250% respectively compared to October. These jumps, from 2 to 8 and 2 to 7 incidents, suggest a possible shift in criminal activity or reporting patterns during the month. Meanwhile, burglary and theft from the person both fell by 50%, though these decreases are tempered by the context of low base numbers—burglary dropped from 6 to 3, and theft from the person from 2 to 1. The crime mix also revealed stark regional disparities: criminal damage and arson occurred at 108% above the UK average, while anti-social behaviour was 6% below. This contrast highlights how local factors—such as community cohesion, policing presence, or the physical environment—can shape crime profiles. For residents, the 300% rise in 'other crime' may signal a need for vigilance in areas not traditionally prioritised for crime prevention, such as less-frequented public spaces or specific commercial zones.

Coalville's crime rate in November 2025 stood at 7.9 per 1,000 residents, marking a 16.1% decline from the previous month’s rate of 9.5 per 1,000. This reduction, though modest, suggests a potential shift in local crime dynamics. On a daily basis, the area experienced an average of six reported crimes per day, a figure that may seem abstract but translates to tangible encounters for residents. Over the course of the month, one reported crime occurred for roughly every 126 residents, a monthly exposure rate that contextualises the frequency of incidents within the community. With a population of 21,069, this ratio illustrates the relative density of crime in a built-up area, where proximity to services, public spaces, and transport hubs can amplify both opportunities for crime and the visibility of incidents. While the overall rate remains above the UK average, the downward trend from October offers a contrast to the previous month’s higher volatility, potentially influenced by seasonal factors such as reduced daylight hours or post-holiday activity patterns.
