Moor Park Crime Rate August 2025 | Monthly Statistics

In August 2025, Moor Park recorded 12 crimes across a population of 5,842 residents, translating to a crime rate of 2.1 per 1,000—a figure 74.1% below the UK average of 8.1 per 1,000. This stark contrast highlights the area's relatively low crime profile, which is consistent with its character as a built-up area within Three Rivers, likely influenced by a mix of residential and commuter activity. The top crime types were anti-social behaviour (4 incidents) and violence and sexual offences (4 incidents), each accounting for 33.3% of the total. These categories are both significantly below UK averages, with anti-social behaviour 52% below the national rate and violence/sexual offences 76% below. The seasonal context of August, a peak holiday month, may have contributed to certain patterns: while tourism could increase burglary risks, the area's crime rate remained low, due to effective local policing or community initiatives. However, the data also reveals notable shifts in crime types, with drug-related offences and other theft rising sharply, suggesting potential changes in criminal activity or reporting practices. These findings underscore the importance of context when interpreting crime statistics, as Moor Park's profile reflects a combination of geographic, demographic, and seasonal factors that may not be directly comparable to other areas.

August 2025 saw significant fluctuations in crime types within Moor Park. Drug-related offences increased by 100% compared to July, with one incident reported after none in the previous month. Similarly, other theft rose by 100%, indicating a shift in criminal activity patterns. Conversely, vehicle crime dropped by 85.7%, from seven incidents in July to just one in August, a decline that may reflect changes in local parking habits or increased security measures. Violent crimes, including violence and sexual offences, fell by 63.6%, from 11 to 4, though this category remains 76% below the UK average. The breakdown of crimes reveals that anti-social behaviour (33.3% of total) and violence/sexual offences (33.3%) dominate the profile, both significantly underperforming the UK averages for these categories. These trends suggest a combination of seasonal and local factors influencing crime dynamics, though can be established without further data.

Moor Park's crime rate in August 2025 fell to 2.1 per 1,000 residents, a 62.6% decrease from the previous month's rate of 5.5 per 1,000. This decline aligns with broader seasonal patterns, as August typically sees reduced foot traffic in local retail areas and fewer weekend events that might otherwise drive anti-social behaviour. On a daily basis, the area recorded an average of 0 crimes per day, a figure that underscores the low frequency of incidents despite the month's peak holiday activity. When scaled to the population of 5,842, the 12 total crimes reported mean that over the course of the month, one crime occurred for roughly every 487 residents. This monthly exposure statistic is particularly meaningful for residents, as it contextualises the likelihood of encountering crime in daily life. The area's low crime rate, consistently below the UK average, reflects a combination of community engagement and local infrastructure that may contribute to a safer environment, though further analysis would be needed to confirm causal links.
