Studley Crime Rate November 2025 | Monthly Statistics

Studley’s November 2025 crime rate of 4.6 per 1,000 residents underscores a historically low level of criminal activity, placing the area 37% below the UK average. This figure, while modest, reflects the built-up area’s character as part of Stratford-on-Avon—a historic town with limited commercial density and a strong community focus. The most common crime category was violence and sexual offences, accounting for 32.1% of total incidents.5 per 1,000 remains significantly below the UK average of 2.6 per 1,000. Anti-social behaviour, the second most frequent category (25.0% of total crimes), rose sharply this month, likely influenced by seasonal events such as Bonfire Night and the onset of darker evenings. This aligns with broader patterns observed in rural and semi-rural areas, where public order issues can spike during festive periods. Meanwhile, property crimes, including vehicle crime and burglary, remained well below UK averages, with vehicle crime at 0.2 per 1,000 (50% below the UK rate) and burglary at 0.2 per 1,000 (33% below). The low incidence of property crime may be attributed to Studley’s limited retail and transport infrastructure, which reduces opportunities for theft. The seasonal context of November—marked by Black Friday shopping and the transition to shorter days—may also have influenced patterns, with anti-social behaviour and public order offences fluctuating in line with increased social activity and reduced visibility. These trends suggest that while Studley’s overall safety remains strong, localised spikes in certain categories warrant attention, particularly as community engagement and policing efforts continue to shape the area’s crime profile.

November 2025 saw a sharp rise in anti-social behaviour, increasing by 133.3% from 3 to 7 incidents—a jump that may reflect the impact of Bonfire Night events in the area. Concurrently, criminal damage and arson doubled to 3 incidents, potentially linked to seasonal festivities. In contrast, violence and sexual offences fell by 59.1% compared to October, with the rate dropping from 22 to 9 cases. This decrease aligns with the UK average for this category, which is 2.6 per 1,000, though Studley’s rate of 1.5 per 1,000 remains lower. Possession of weapons rose by 100%, with one incident reported in November, a category where Studley’s rate is 186% above the UK average of 0.1 per 1,000. Residents might find the 37% below UK average overall rate particularly reassuring, especially given the area’s historical character and limited commercial activity, which may reduce opportunities for certain crimes.

Studley's November 2025 crime rate of 4.6 per 1,000 residents marks a 24.4% decline from the previous month's 6.1, reflecting a sustained downward trend. This reduction places the area 37% below the UK average of 7.3, a gap that has widened since last year. Locally, the average resident faces a 1-in-216 chance of experiencing a crime over the month, a figure that contextualises the low volume of incidents relative to the population of 6,056. Daily crime statistics show an average of one reported crime per day across Studley, a figure that, while consistent with historical patterns, remains significantly lower than the UK average of 2.2 crimes per day. This suggests that local factors—such as the area’s historic character, limited nightlife, and community policing efforts—are likely contributing to the sustained safety record. The monthly exposure rate, though modest, highlights that even low crime rates can be meaningful in smaller communities where personal connections and local awareness amplify the impact of each incident.
