Warlingham Crime Rate November 2025 | Monthly Statistics

Warlingham’s November 2025 crime rate of 3.2 per 1,000 residents places it 56.2% below the UK average of 7.3, underscoring its status as a relatively safe built-up area. The most common crime category was violence and sexual offences, accounting for 50% of all incidents, followed by anti-social behaviour (11.5%) and criminal damage (7.7%). These figures align with the area’s character as a low-density urban environment where violent crime, though present, remains significantly below national levels. The seasonal context of November—marked by Bonfire Night, Black Friday, and prolonged darkness—may have influenced crime patterns, with increased police patrols or community initiatives likely contributing to the overall decline. However, the 100% rise in weapon possession and theft from the person highlights occasional spikes that warrant attention. The low rates of property crime, particularly vehicle crime (0.2 per 1,000) and burglary (0.2 per 1,000), contrast with the UK average, suggesting that Warlingham’s proximity to major transport links or commercial hubs may not drive such incidents as much as in other areas. The balance between violent and property crime also reflects the area’s demographic profile, with anti-social behaviour and criminal damage being lower than the UK average—due to strong local governance or community cohesion. As November transitions into the quieter winter months, the stability in violent crime and the drop in disorderly incidents may indicate sustained efforts to maintain public safety.

November 2025 saw notable shifts in Warlingham’s crime profile. Possession of weapons and theft from the person both rose by 100% compared to October, while burglary also doubled. These increases, though small in absolute terms, may reflect heightened vigilance during dark evenings or isolated incidents tied to seasonal events like Bonfire Night. Conversely, anti-social behaviour, criminal damage, and vehicle crime all fell by 50%, suggesting a possible reduction in disorderly activity or improved community engagement. The area’s violent crime rate—1.6 per 1,000—remains 38% below the UK average, while anti-social behaviour is 62% below the national rate. This contrast highlights Warlingham’s unique position: a built-up area where violent crime is relatively rare but occasional spikes in weapon-related offences suggest areas for further attention. For residents, the 50% drop in anti-social behaviour may signal a tangible improvement in local quality of life.

Warlingham's crime rate in November 2025 stood at 3.2 per 1,000 residents, marking a 16.1% decline from the previous month’s rate of 3.8. This downward trend suggests a continued improvement in local safety, though the absolute number of crimes remains low. On a daily basis, the area recorded approximately one crime per day, a figure that, while small, reflects the consistent presence of minor incidents. Over the course of the month, one reported crime occurred for roughly every 314 residents, highlighting the relatively low frequency of crime in Warlingham compared to the UK average. When contextualised within the area’s population of 8,172, this translates to a monthly exposure rate that is significantly lower than the national benchmark. The reduction in anti-social behaviour and vehicle crime, coupled with the stability of violent crime, indicates a mix of factors influencing local safety—possibly including seasonal changes, community engagement, or targeted policing efforts. While the UK average daily crime figure is not available, Warlingham’s monthly context underscores its position as an area with consistently lower crime rates, even during periods of heightened activity like Bonfire Night.
