Brockworth Crime Rate November 2025 | Monthly Statistics

Brockworth's crime rate in November 2025 stood at 4.9 per 1,000 residents, placing the area 32.9% below the UK average of 7.3 per 1,000. This figure reflects a persistent trend of lower-than-national crime levels, though the month saw notable seasonal influences. Violence and sexual offences remained the most reported category, accounting for 40.3% of all crimes, followed by anti-social behaviour at 25.0%. These patterns align with the area's character as a built-up district within Tewkesbury, where community cohesion and local policing may contribute to reduced violent crime. However, November's dark evenings and the proximity of Bonfire Night and Black Friday shopping likely created conditions conducive to certain offences. The sharp rise in other thefts, though not yet reflected in the overall rate, highlights the need for vigilance during high-traffic periods. Anti-social behaviour, while lower than the UK average, remains a persistent local issue, potentially linked to the area's mix of residential and commercial spaces. The relatively low burglary and vehicle crime rates—both 33-75% below national averages—suggest effective security measures or a lower density of vulnerable properties. As the year draws to a close, these trends will be critical to monitor, particularly as seasonal factors may continue to shape crime patterns in the coming months.

The most dramatic shift in November 2025 was a 600% increase in 'other theft' cases, rising from 1 to 7 incidents. This surge, though small in absolute terms, underscores the vulnerability of personal property during high-traffic periods like Black Friday. Concurrently, public order offences nearly tripled, reflecting potential tensions during Bonfire Night celebrations or increased foot traffic in local areas. Meanwhile, violence and sexual offences fell by 23.7% compared to October, a decline that may partly explain the overall crime rate remaining below the UK average. Anti-social behaviour. still accounts for a quarter of all crimes, suggesting ongoing challenges in managing community interactions. Brockworth's burglary rate is 33% below the UK average, a figure that could be attributed to the area's compact layout and limited high-value property density. The stark contrast between local and national rates—particularly for vehicle crime (75% below UK average) and drug-related offences (63% below)—highlights the effectiveness of local initiatives or the absence of factors that drive these categories elsewhere. For residents, the sharp rise in 'other theft' serves as a clear warning to secure valuables during late-night shopping or festive events.

Brockworth's crime rate in November 2025 rose 7.4% from the previous month's 4.6 per 1,000, though it remains significantly lower than the UK average. This increase translates to approximately 2 crimes per day on average, a figure that is 32.9% below the national rate. Over the course of the month, one reported crime occurred for roughly every 203 residents—a monthly exposure rate that is exceptionally low compared to larger urban centres. The population context further underscores the area's relative safety: with 14,628 residents, the 72 reported crimes equate to a manageable burden on local policing resources. This contrast with national averages is particularly striking in categories like vehicle crime, where Brockworth's rate is 75% below the UK average. Such figures suggest that the built-up area's compact nature and community-oriented policing may act as natural deterrents. However, the 600% increase in 'other theft' highlights the need for targeted awareness campaigns during peak shopping periods. While the overall rate remains low, the month-on-month rise serves as a reminder that even small fluctuations can signal emerging trends that require local attention.
