Deepcar Crime Rate July 2025 | Monthly Statistics

The crime mix in Deepcar during July 2025 reveals a distinct profile shaped by both local characteristics and seasonal influences. Violence and sexual offences accounted for 28.1% of all reported crimes, making them the most prevalent category, followed by anti-social behaviour at 18.8%. This balance suggests a focus on interpersonal crime, likely influenced by the area's urban nature and the summer season, when increased social activity and outdoor events may contribute to higher incidents of violence and disorder. Public order offences. rose above the UK average by 9%, potentially linked to the peak of festivals and other public gatherings typical of July in a built-up area. Conversely, property crimes such as burglary and vehicle crime remained significantly below the UK average, with burglary at 26% below and vehicle crime at 28% below. This contrast may reflect effective community policing or the physical layout of Deepcar, which is integrated within Sheffield's urban fabric but retains lower vulnerability to property-related crimes compared to other areas. Seasonal factors are evident: with schools out and tourism at its peak, the rise in drug-related crimes and public order offences aligns with patterns seen in other UK urban centres during the summer months. However, the overall crime rate of 5.7 per 1,000 residents remains 33.7% below the UK average, highlighting Deepcar's relatively safe environment despite these specific increases. The interplay between local demographics, policing strategies, and seasonal activity creates a unique crime profile that differs from both national trends and other parts of Sheffield.

July 2025 saw a 100% increase in drug-related crimes, rising from zero to two incidents, while vehicle crime also doubled from zero to three.

Drug-related crimes in Deepcar are 43% above the UK average, suggesting a localised trend that may relate to seasonal factors such as festivals and increased social activity.

Deepcar's crime rate in July 2025 rose 14.3% compared to June, reflecting a shift in local dynamics. While the area remains 33.7% below the UK average, the monthly exposure figure highlights that over the course of the month, one reported crime occurred for roughly every 177 residents. This provides context for local residents: a relatively low frequency compared to national trends. Daily crime statistics show a consistent pace, with approximately one crime reported per day in July. This figure aligns with the area's character as a built-up part of Sheffield, where community engagement and policing efforts may mitigate crime despite seasonal fluctuations.

Local initiatives, though not named, may contribute to this sustained lower rate, particularly in property crimes which saw a notable decline from the previous month.
