Redhill Crime Rate November 2025 | Monthly Statistics

In November 2025, Redhill (Reigate and Banstead) maintained a crime rate of 7.2 per 1,000 residents, a figure 1.4% below the UK average. This relatively low rate translates to a daily risk of approximately 8 crimes per day for residents, or one incident for every 139 people over the course of the month. The per-capita perspective suggests that while crime is not absent, its frequency is manageable within the area’s demographic and geographic context. The most prevalent crime type was violence and sexual offences, accounting for 42.9% of all reported incidents. This concentration of violent crime, which is 21% above the UK average, may be influenced by factors such as the area’s proximity to major transport links and the presence of nightlife venues. Anti-social behaviour followed at 16.3% of the total, with a 13% increase compared to the UK average, potentially linked to the seasonal context of Bonfire Night and the post-Black Friday retail environment. Shoplifting, though less frequent, also exceeded the national average by 11%, which could be attributed to the influx of shoppers during the holiday season. These patterns, however, are offset by lower rates of vehicle crime (50% below the UK average) and burglary (67% below), suggesting that the area’s infrastructure—such as secure parking facilities and low-density housing—may contribute to reduced property-related offences. The overall crime profile illustrates a balance between local vulnerabilities and mitigating factors, with the season’s darker evenings and festive events likely playing a role in shaping the month’s crime dynamics.

November saw a stark rise in possession of weapons, doubling from 2 to 4 incidents—a 100% increase. This spike, though small in absolute terms, may signal heightened tensions during the festive season or reflect specific local factors. Conversely, vehicle crime dropped by 58.3%, from 12 to 5, potentially linked to reduced shopping trips during the post-Black Friday lull. The breakdown of crime types reveals a marked imbalance: violence and sexual offences account for 42.9% of all crimes, significantly exceeding the UK average of 2.6 per 1,000 (21% above). This concentration of violent crime contrasts with the UK-wide trend, where property crimes often dominate. Meanwhile, theft from the person, though minimal (1 incident), saw a 100% increase from zero to one, highlighting the vulnerability of individuals in public spaces during darker evenings. These shifts underscore the need for targeted interventions in areas prone to violent incidents, such as late-night transport hubs or high-traffic retail zones.

Redhill's November 2025 crime rate of 7.2 per 1,000 residents represents a 10.0% decrease from the previous month’s rate of 8.0 per 1,000. This decline aligns with seasonal patterns observed in similar areas, where reduced daylight hours and colder weather may partly explain lower outdoor crime activity. On a daily basis, the area recorded approximately 8 crimes per day in November, a figure that provides a tangible sense of frequency for local residents. Over the course of the month, one reported crime occurred for roughly every 139 residents, a metric that contextualises risk within the population. This monthly exposure rate is lower than the 1-in-100 figure seen in some comparable urban centres, suggesting a relatively safer environment despite the area’s proximity to major transport routes. The population-scaled perspective reveals that while crime remains a concern, the overall rate is well below the UK average, reflecting effective policing strategies or community engagement initiatives that may not be explicitly documented in the data.
