The most striking development in November 2025 was the 100% increase in 'Other crime' incidents, rising from one to two cases. This category, which includes unclassified offences, moved sharply upwards despite an overall crime rate of 3.8 per 1,000 residents—47.9% below the UK average of 7.3. The area's built-up character within Rugby, a commuter town with mixed residential and retail zones, likely contributes to this pattern. Violence and sexual offences remained the most common category (8 incidents, 33.3% of total).1% compared to October. Anti-social behaviour (4 incidents) and other theft (3 incidents) followed, both significantly below UK averages. Seasonal factors such as Bonfire Night, Black Friday shopping, and extended dark evenings may have influenced patterns, though the overall crime rate remained stable relative to other months. The low property crime rate (9 total) contrasts with higher violent crime numbers, suggesting a possible shift in criminal activity towards more personal offences during the month. This could reflect increased foot traffic in local retail areas or changes in community behaviour during the festive period. The data shows a consistent trend of Cawston maintaining a crime profile well below national benchmarks, though the surge in 'Other crime' warrants attention.

November saw a 100% increase in 'Other crime' incidents, a category that includes unclassified offences, rising from one to two cases. This jump stands out as the most significant month-on-month change, though the category remains relatively small in scale. Conversely, burglary fell by 66.7% compared to October, dropping from three to one incident—a sharp decline that may reflect improved security measures or seasonal factors. Violence and sexual offences, the most common crime type, decreased by 11.1% (from nine to eight), though they remain 49% below the UK average of 2.6 per 1,000. Anti-social behaviour (4 incidents) and other theft (3 incidents) also remained well below UK averages, with the latter category (other theft) 68% lower than the national rate. 'Other crime' is 87% above the UK average for its category (0.2 vs 0.2 per 1,000), suggesting a potential localised issue that requires further analysis. Residents may find the 100% increase in 'Other crime' particularly noteworthy, as it highlights a category that is both underreported nationally and now showing unexpected volatility in Cawston.

The crime rate in Cawston (Rugby) rose by 4.4% compared to October, moving from 3.7 to 3.8 per 1,000 residents. This small increase contrasts with the overall trend of remaining well below the UK average, which stands at 7.3 per 1,000. On a daily basis, the area experienced roughly one crime per day in November—a figure that, while low, reflects the small population of 6,276 residents. Over the course of the month, one reported crime occurred for every 262 residents, a monthly exposure rate that highlights the rarity of criminal activity in this built-up area. When compared to the previous month, the slight increase in crime rate is less significant than the broader context of Cawston's consistently low crime profile. The population-scaled perspective shows that even with the 100% rise in 'Other crime', the absolute number of incidents remains minimal. This suggests that while local fluctuations occur, the area's overall safety remains markedly better than the UK average. Residents living in Cawston can take comfort in the fact that their community's crime rates are consistently among the lowest in the country, even as small monthly variations are observed.
