Stocksbridge Crime Rate June 2025 | Monthly Statistics

For every 1,000 residents in Stocksbridge, 6.6 crimes were recorded in June 2025—a figure that is 18.5% below the UK average of 8.1 per 1,000. This per-capita rate translates to a daily risk of encountering crime at roughly 2 incidents per day, a statistic that provides context for residents navigating the area. The most prevalent category was violence and sexual offences, accounting for 33.3% of all reported crimes, followed by anti-social behaviour (17.7%) and criminal damage and arson (17.7%).

While the area's crime rate is significantly lower than the UK average, specific categories like criminal damage and arson (107% above UK levels) highlight localised challenges. The breakdown also shows that shoplifting and public order offences are below the UK average, potentially reflecting the characteristics of a built-up area within Sheffield, where community policing and targeted interventions may play a role. The data suggests a combination of seasonal factors and localised issues, with the crime profile illustrating both areas of strength and those requiring further attention.

This rise, from zero to one reported case, contrasts with the 50% decline in shoplifting and public order offences, which fell from six to three and 11 to four respectively. The shift in crime mix reveals a move away from property-related offences toward more targeted acts, though violent crimes remained the most prevalent category at 33.3% of total incidents. Criminal damage and arson in Stocksbridge were 107% above the UK average, suggesting a localised challenge in this area. Meanwhile, vehicle crime and other theft saw 100% increases, potentially linked to seasonal patterns such as increased vehicle movement or tourism-related activity. These fluctuations underscore the need for tailored strategies to address emerging trends while maintaining vigilance in high-risk categories like criminal damage.

Stocksbridge's crime rate in June 2025 (6.6 per 1,000) represents a 21.5% decrease from the previous month's 8.5 per 1,000, marking a notable shift in the local crime profile. This reduction aligns with the seasonal rhythm of June, a time when longer daylight hours and the onset of summer may influence outdoor activity patterns and community engagement. On a daily basis, the area experiences approximately 2 crimes per day—a figure that translates to one reported crime for roughly every 151 residents over the course of the month. This monthly exposure rate provides a tangible sense of risk, placing the likelihood of encountering crime at a level that is 18.5% below the UK average. The population context further underscores this: with 7,682 residents, the crime rate is spread across a relatively compact built-up area within Sheffield, where local initiatives and community policing may contribute to the observed decline. While the drop in public order offences and shoplifting suggests a possible correlation with increased foot traffic or seasonal events, the persistence of criminal damage and arson above UK averages indicates areas requiring targeted intervention.
