Treorchy Crime Rate November 2025 | Monthly Statistics

Violent crimes in Treorchy during November 2025 accounted for 44.1% of all reported incidents, a rate of 3.9 per 1,000 residents—52% above the UK average. This stark outlier underscores a significant divergence in the area’s crime profile compared to national trends. With 30 violent offences recorded, the area’s rate of 3.9 per 1,000 is among the highest in the UK for this category, consistent with patterns seen in built-up areas with high population density and limited policing resources. Anti-social behaviour, at 1.7 per 1,000 (19.1% of all crimes), also exceeded the UK average by 60%, reflecting persistent challenges in community engagement and disorder management. Meanwhile, property crimes—18 in total—accounted for only 26.5% of all incidents, a marked contrast to the 56% share typically seen in UK urban centres. This imbalance may be attributed to Treorchy’s unique demographic makeup, with a high incidence of violent and public order offences likely tied to seasonal factors such as Bonfire Night and the onset of colder weather. The month’s context—Black Friday shopping and extended dark evenings—may have amplified tensions in public spaces, contributing to the sharp rise in anti-social behaviour and public order offences. While shoplifting and vehicle crime both declined, the overall crime rate of 8.9 per 1,000 remains 21.9% above the UK average, a figure that highlights the need for targeted interventions in the area’s most vulnerable sectors.

November 2025 saw a sharp 133.3% increase in public order offences, rising from 3 to 7 incidents. This surge, coupled with a 62.5% rise in anti-social behaviour (from 8 to 13), highlights a concerning trend in community disturbances. Violent crimes in Treorchy—accounting for 44.1% of all reported incidents—were 52% above the UK average of 2.6 per 1,000, with 30 cases recorded. Conversely, shoplifting and vehicle crime both declined by 40%, aligning with UK rates for these categories. The 108% spike in criminal damage and arson (from 7 to 8) may be linked to November's Bonfire Night. Residents might find the 4.4% share of other theft and shoplifting—both below UK averages—particularly relevant, as these categories saw decreases. The stark contrast between rising anti-social behaviour and falling vehicle crime suggests shifting patterns in local criminal activity.

Treorchy's crime rate in November 2025 rose to 8.9 per 1,000 residents, marking a 7.9% increase from the previous month's rate of 8.3. This places the area significantly above the UK average, with 21.9% more crimes per capita than the national figure of 7.3. On a daily basis, the area experienced approximately 2 crimes per day in November, a figure that, while local to Treorchy, underscores the frequency of incidents in a relatively small population. When scaled to the area's 7,628 residents, the monthly exposure translates to one reported crime for roughly every 112 residents. This ratio, while not directly comparable to UK-wide statistics, offers a tangible measure of how often residents encounter crime in their daily lives. The shift from October to November reflects a seasonal pattern consistent with darker evenings and holiday-related activity, which may influence both the types and frequency of crimes reported.
