Queen's Hills Crime Rate November 2025 | Monthly Statistics

The crime profile of Queen's Hills in November 2025 reveals a balanced but distinct mix of violent and property offences, shaped by seasonal and geographical factors. With 16 total crimes recorded, the area's overall rate of 2.9 per 1,000 residents is 60.3% below the UK average of 7.3 per 1,000. Violent crimes, particularly violence and sexual offences (6 incidents, 37.5% of total), dominate the mix, yet remain 57% below the national average. This may be partly attributable to the area's character as a built-up rural settlement, where limited nightlife and commercial activity reduce opportunities for certain types of violence. Property crimes, though lower in absolute numbers (5 incidents), are also significantly below UK averages: shoplifting and other theft fall 61% and 68% below national rates respectively. Seasonal factors in November—such as Bonfire Night and dark evenings—may contribute to the higher proportion of public order offences (12.5%) and criminal damage and arson (18.8%), which align with increased community events and reduced visibility. The low crime rate, combined with the absence of major urban centres or tourist attractions, suggests that Queen's Hills' rural character and smaller population size play a key role in maintaining this below-average profile.

November saw sharp month-on-month increases in criminal damage and arson (up 100% from 0 to 3), public order offences (up 100% from 0 to 2), and other theft (up 100% from 0 to 1). These spikes, though not statistically anomalous given the small numbers, may partly explain the overall rate jump from 1.3 to 2.9 per 1,000. The crime mix reveals a stark contrast to the UK average: violence and sexual offences in Queen's Hills are 57% below the national rate, while anti-social behaviour is 81% below. Possession of weapons in the area is 186% above the UK average—a rare outlier that warrants scrutiny. Residents might find the 100% increase in criminal damage and arson particularly noteworthy, though the small sample size (3 incidents) limits definitive conclusions.

Queen's Hills' crime rate in November 2025 (2.9 per 1,000) represents a 128.3% increase from the previous month's rate of 1.3 per 1,000. This jump, though significant, remains far below the UK average of 7.3 per 1,000. Daily crime statistics show 16 total crimes spread over 30 days, equating to roughly 1 crime per day—a rate that, while not negligible, is markedly lower than the national context. Over the course of November, one reported crime occurred for every 345 residents, a figure that highlights the low frequency of incidents relative to the population of 5,524. This monthly exposure rate, when contextualised against the area's character as a built-up rural settlement, underscores the relative safety of Queen's Hills compared to densely populated urban centres. The population-scaled perspective further illustrates that residents face a crime risk significantly below the UK average, with violent crimes (6) and property crimes (5) both falling well below national benchmarks.
