Kiveton Park Crime Rate December 2025 | Monthly Statistics

Kiveton Park's crime rate in December 2025 stood at 5.0 per 1,000 residents, placing the area 28.6% below the UK average of 7.0 per 1,000. This performance highlights a distinct contrast to national trends, particularly in the distribution of crime types. Violence and sexual offences accounted for the largest share of incidents (44.4%), followed by shoplifting (16.7%) and public order offences (8.3%). The seasonal context of December, marked by Christmas shopping, extended evenings, and holiday-related activities, may have influenced these patterns. The 40% above-average shoplifting rate suggests a potential link to retail activity in the area, though this remains speculative without further data. Conversely, the 14% below-average rate for violence and sexual offences indicates a relative safety in this category, possibly reflecting the area's character as a built-up district with established community networks. The UK comparison underscores Kiveton Park's position as a relatively safe locality within the broader statistical framework, though the localised spikes in specific crime types warrant closer attention. This December's data also reveals a notable shift in the crime mix, with property crimes comprising a smaller proportion than usual, a trend that may be influenced by the season's impact on outdoor activity and commercial operations.

December 2025 saw a 77.8% increase in violence and sexual offences, rising from 9 to 16 incidents. This surge, coupled with a 100% spike in drug-related crimes, contrasts sharply with the 75% drop in criminal damage and arson. The area's shoplifting rate remained elevated, 40% above the UK average, a pattern consistent with the Christmas shopping season. Meanwhile, public order offences fell by 40%, possibly reflecting reduced foot traffic during the holiday period. The balance between property and violent crimes shifted significantly, with violent crimes accounting for 44.4% of the total, compared to property crimes at 16.7%. This divergence from the UK average highlights the unique dynamics at play in Kiveton Park, where local factors may be influencing the crime mix more than national trends.

Kiveton Park's crime rate in December 2025 dropped to 5.0 per 1,000 residents, an 18.2% decrease from the previous month's 6.2 per 1,000. This decline aligns with the typically lower crime activity seen in December, though the area's overall rate remains 28.6% below the UK average. Daily crime statistics reveal one reported crime per day on average, a figure that reflects the relatively low volume of incidents in this built-up area. Over the course of the month, 1 in 199 residents experienced a reported crime, a ratio that suggests the community is among the safer in the region. When scaled to the local population of 7,151, this translates to a manageable level of risk. share of violent crimes raises questions about local factors influencing such offences. The area's demographic profile, which includes a mix of residential and commercial zones, may contribute to this balance, though further analysis would be needed to confirm this connection.
