Ruddington Crime Rate September 2025 | Monthly Statistics

Ruddington's crime rate in September 2025 stood at 5.0 per 1,000 residents, 32.4% below the UK average of 7.4 per 1,000. This figure, though modest, masks stark variations in specific crime types. Violence and sexual offences dominated, accounting for 41% of all reported crimes, with a rate of 2.1 per 1,000—19% below the UK average. Anti-social behaviour followed at 12.8%, also significantly lower than the national figure. However, the data reveals sharp contrasts: robbery, at 0.4 per 1,000, was 300% above the UK average, while burglary (0.5 per 1,000) was 79% above. These anomalies may be linked to local dynamics, such as the area's proximity to educational institutions, which could influence patterns of theft and personal crime. September, a transitional month with back-to-school activity and shorter evenings, may have contributed to shifts in crime timing. The overall rate, while lower than the UK average, underscores the need for targeted interventions in categories like robbery and burglary, which defy the broader trend of reduced crime.

September 2025 marked a notable 100% increase in burglaries, with four incidents reported compared to none in August. Robbery also surged by 100%, rising to three cases, a rate 300% above the UK average. Bicycle theft, though still low at one incident, was 43% above the national average. These spikes contrast with decreases in other crime (down 50%) and vehicle crime (down 20%), which remained at four incidents. The balance between property and violent crime shifted slightly, with violence and sexual offences accounting for 41% of all crimes. This mix, coupled with the significant jump in robbery, suggests a combination of local factors. Residents may find the daily crime count of one incident per day particularly relevant for situational awareness.

Ruddington's crime rate in September 2025 rose 44.5% from the previous month's 3.5 per 1,000 to 5.0 per 1,000. This translates to roughly one reported crime per day over the 30-day period, a figure that may reflect seasonal patterns as nights draw in. Over the course of the month, one reported crime occurred for every 199 residents, a ratio that contextualises the scale of incidents against the local population of 7,759. While the overall rate remains 32.4% below the UK average, the population-scaled perspective highlights that residents face a lower risk of crime than the national average, though specific categories like robbery and burglary show stark deviations. The daily crime count, while low, underscores the need for continued vigilance, particularly in light of the month-on-month increase.
