Cheadle Crime Rate June 2025 | Monthly Statistics

Cheadle’s crime rate in June 2025 was 6.0 per 1,000, a figure 25.9% below the UK average of 8.1. This performance places the area in a safer bracket compared to national trends, a position likely influenced by its rural character and the limited presence of high-density urban environments. Violence and sexual offences dominated the crime profile, accounting for 60.3% of all incidents, with 44 cases reported. This category’s rate of 3.6 per 1,000 is 26% above the UK average, suggesting a localised concentration of such crimes. Anti-social behaviour followed closely, contributing 16.4% of total crimes.0 per 1,000 is 30% below the UK average. The seasonal context of June—marking the start of summer—may play a role in these patterns, as increased social activity in built-up areas could heighten incidents of violence and anti-social behaviour. Conversely, crimes like public order (4.1% of total) and vehicle crime (2.7%) saw rates significantly below the UK average, aligning with the area’s lower population density and reduced exposure to urban risk factors. The contrast between categories highlights the interplay between local geography and crime dynamics, with rural isolation limiting opportunities for certain types of offences. These trends, while influenced by seasonal rhythms, underscore the importance of contextual analysis in understanding Cheadle’s crime profile.

June 2025 saw a 46.7% increase in violence and sexual offences, rising from 30 to 44 incidents. This jump, the most dramatic month-on-month change, may be linked to the start of summer, when social activity intensifies in built-up areas. Possession of weapons also surged by 100%, with two incidents reported—double the previous month’s total. This category’s rate of 0.2 per 1,000 is 150% above the UK average, a stark contrast to other categories. Meanwhile, criminal damage and arson fell by 77.8%, dropping from 9 to 2 incidents, possibly reflecting seasonal shifts in vandalism patterns. Vehicle crime decreased by 66.7%, aligning with broader trends in rural areas where car theft is less common. These fluctuations highlight the dynamic nature of local crime, shaped by both seasonal and geographic factors.

Cheadle’s crime rate remained stable at 6.0 per 1,000 in June 2025, matching the previous month’s figure. This consistency suggests no significant short-term shifts in crime patterns, though local conditions may still influence specific incidents. On a daily basis, 2 crimes were reported across the built-up area, a figure that, while low, reflects the area’s smaller population. Over the course of the month, one reported crime occurred for roughly every 166 residents, a monthly exposure rate that contextualises the scale of incidents relative to the population of 12,102. This figure is particularly meaningful for residents, offering a tangible sense of how frequently crime intersects with daily life. The population context also highlights that Cheadle’s crime rate remains 25.9% below the UK average, underscoring its relative safety compared to national trends. This disparity may be attributed to the area’s rural character and the limited density of high-risk environments typically associated with urban centres.
