Rural Redbridge Crime Rate September 2025 | Monthly Statistics

For a population of 1,803 residents, Rural Redbridge's September 2025 crime rate of 3.3 per 1,000 translates to just 6 total crimes — an exceptionally low figure that places the area 55.4% below the UK average of 7.4 per 1,000. This built-up rural enclave, situated within the broader Redbridge borough, demonstrates a crime profile dominated by property-related offences, with 5 out of 6 reported crimes falling under this category. The most common crime type was burglary, accounting for 33.3% of all incidents (2 cases), followed by vehicle crime, anti-social behaviour, robbery, and shoplifting, each contributing 16.7% of the total. While shoplifting rates were 2% below the UK average, burglary rates were starkly elevated at 293% above national levels, a discrepancy that may reflect the area's specific characteristics. Seasonal context in September — marked by the return to school and university freshers — typically correlates with increased youth activity, yet the area's overall crime levels remain unusually subdued. This contrast suggests that local factors, such as community cohesion or effective policing, may be counterbalancing seasonal pressures. The dominance of property crimes, despite low overall rates, indicates that while violent crime is rare, targeted property offences remain a persistent concern for residents.

September 2025 saw sharp increases in anti-social behaviour (+100%), burglary (+100%), and robbery (+100%) compared to August, with anti-social behaviour rising from 0 to 1 incident. This spike, though small in absolute terms, signals a notable shift in the crime mix. Vehicle crime, however, dropped by 50% (from 2 to 1), possibly reflecting seasonal changes in car usage or increased visibility during shorter evenings. Burglary in the area stood at 1.1 per 1,000 residents, 293% above the UK average of 0.3 per 1,000 — a stark outlier that warrants attention. Conversely, anti-social behaviour was 49% below the UK average of 1.2 per 1,000, suggesting community dynamics that may deter such incidents. These disparities highlight the area's unique crime profile, where property-related crimes dominate despite overall low rates.

Rural Redbridge's crime rate in September 2025 remained stable at 3.3 per 1,000 residents, matching the previous month's figure. This consistency suggests no significant short-term fluctuations in criminal activity. Daily crime statistics reveal an average of 0.2 crimes per day, a figure so low it effectively translates to negligible daily risk for residents. When viewed through a population lens, the monthly exposure rate of 1 crime per 301 residents underscores the rarity of incidents in this built-up rural area. For context, the UK average of 7.4 per 1,000 means Rural Redbridge's rate is 55.4% below national levels, highlighting a marked safety advantage. This population-scaled perspective reinforces that the area's crime profile is exceptionally low, even when accounting for its status as a built-up rural enclave within Redbridge.
