Bulkington Crime Rate June 2025 | Monthly Statistics

The crime mix in Bulkington for June 2025 reveals a striking balance between violent offences and anti-social behaviour, with these two categories accounting for 71.8% of all reported crimes. Violence and sexual offences, at 14 incidents, dominate the landscape, followed closely by anti-social behaviour, which also reached 14 cases. This duality suggests a combination of personal safety concerns and community-level disruptions. The overall crime rate of 6.3 per 1,000 residents places Bulkington 22.2% below the UK average, a position that may be influenced by its built-up nature within Nuneaton and Bedworth, where urban characteristics typically correlate with higher crime rates. However, the local data defies this expectation, indicating that factors such as effective policing, community cohesion, or specific local initiatives may be at play. Seasonal context in June — the start of summer and longer evenings — could contribute to the prevalence of anti-social behaviour. Property crimes were minimal, with only 6 incidents reported, a figure that is significantly lower than the UK average for this category. This contrast highlights a potential focus on personal safety over property-related issues in Bulkington, though further analysis would be needed to confirm this pattern. The low rates of shoplifting and other theft-related crimes (each at 1 incident) suggest that retail areas may not be major hotspots, though this could also reflect underreporting or the area's character as a built-up district with limited commercial presence.

June 2025 saw a 100% increase in anti-social behaviour, with 14 incidents reported — a stark rise from 7 in May. This surge, coupled with a doubling of burglary and weapon possession cases, indicates a shift in criminal activity. Violence and sexual offences remained the most common category, but their rate (2.3 per 1,000) was 20% below the UK average, highlighting a relative safety in this area. Conversely, anti-social behaviour was 62% above the UK rate, a discrepancy that may reflect local dynamics such as community density or policing focus. The drop in shoplifting (50% decrease) contrasts with the rise in other categories, suggesting seasonal factors or targeted interventions. Possession of weapons saw a 275% increase over the UK average, a figure that, while small in absolute terms, signals a potential concern for public safety. Residents may find the 100% rise in anti-social behaviour particularly noteworthy, as it represents the most significant monthly change in the dataset.

Bulkington's crime rate in June 2025 rose 49.9% compared to May 2025, reflecting a shift in local patterns. With 39 crimes reported over 30 days, this equates to roughly one crime per day — a figure that, while low, suggests persistent activity in specific areas. The monthly exposure of one crime for every 158 residents underscores that while the area remains safer than the UK average, the risk is not negligible for individuals. This rate sits in contrast to the previous month's 4.2 per 1,000, illustrating a marked upward trend. Population context reveals that each resident in Bulkington faces a 1-in-158 chance of being involved in a reported crime over the month, a figure that, while modest, warrants awareness of local hotspots. The increase aligns with the seasonal context of June, when longer evenings and the start of summer may influence activity patterns. This data invites consideration of how local factors, such as community engagement or policing efforts, interact with these numbers.
