Fulwood Crime Rate June 2025 | Monthly Statistics

For every 1,000 residents in Fulwood, 7.8 crimes were reported in June 2025—a rate that places the area 3.7% below the UK average of 8.1 per 1,000. This figure translates to a tangible risk for residents, with one crime occurring for roughly every 128 people over the course of the month. The most common crime type was violence and sexual offences, accounting for 37.2% of all incidents, closely followed by anti-social behaviour at 23.3%. These patterns may reflect the area’s urban character, where high-density living and shared public spaces create environments conducive to both interpersonal conflict and disruptive behaviour. June, as the start of the summer season, likely influenced crime dynamics: longer daylight hours may reduce opportunities for certain crimes, while the onset of tourism or seasonal shopping could drive increases in retail-related offences. The rate of shoplifting, for example, rose sharply in June, due to heightened foot traffic in local commercial areas. However, the decline in vehicle crime—down 61.5% from the previous month—suggests that changes in commuting patterns or targeted policing efforts may have played a role. Meanwhile, the relatively low rate of theft from the person (0.4 per 1,000) indicates that Fulwood’s urban environment, while active, may not present the same level of risk for opportunistic street crime as more tourist-heavy areas. The overall crime profile for Fulwood in June 2025 thus reflects a combination of seasonal factors, local demographics, and the specific challenges of managing crime in a built-up area within a larger town.

June 2025 saw a dramatic 400% increase in possession of weapons offences, rising from 1 to 5 incidents. This spike, though small in absolute terms, underscores a sharp shift in the nature of reported crimes during the month. Shoplifting also surged by 320%, with 21 incidents recorded—over four times the previous month’s count. This jump may reflect seasonal shopping patterns or increased foot traffic in retail areas during the early summer. Conversely, vehicle crime dropped by 61.5%, falling from 13 to 5, a decline that could be linked to reduced parking congestion or changes in commuter behaviour. Public order offences rose by 40%, reaching 14 incidents, while burglary fell by 52.6% to 9 cases. These shifts highlight a mixed picture, with violent crimes remaining the largest category at 37.2% of total incidents, slightly above the UK average for violence and sexual offences.

Fulwood’s crime rate in June 2025 fell to 7.8 per 1,000 residents, a 4.9% decrease from the previous month’s rate of 8.2. This decline aligns with a broader trend observed in the area during the summer months, when increased daylight and community activity may contribute to reduced opportunities for certain crimes. On a daily basis, Fulwood saw approximately 8 reported crimes each day in June, a figure that translates to roughly one crime for every 128 residents over the course of the month. When compared to the UK average, Fulwood’s rate remains 3.7% below the national figure, though local variations in crime patterns—such as higher rates of anti-social behaviour—suggest that the area’s social dynamics differ from the broader UK context. The population of 32,471 residents means that the crime rate is distributed across a relatively dense urban environment, where targeted policing and community engagement may play a role in shaping the current statistics.
