In November 2025, Torfaen’s crime rate of 0.1 per 1,000 residents places it among the safest areas in the UK, with a 98.6% reduction compared to the national average of 7.3 per 1,000. This figure translates to an estimated one crime for every 10,000 residents annually, a level that suggests minimal personal risk for most individuals. The breakdown of crimes reveals that violent and sexual offences dominate, accounting for 60% of the total, followed by public order and anti-social behaviour, each contributing 20%. These rates are 100% below UK averages for their respective categories, highlighting Torfaen’s consistently low levels of violent and public order crime. Seasonal factors such as darker evenings and the timing of events like Bonfire Night may have influenced the month’s crime pattern. The area’s low population density and possibly strong community engagement may contribute to this safety profile. Residents are unlikely to encounter crime in their daily lives, even with the month-on-month increases in specific categories. The data reflects a stable and secure environment, where crime remains an infrequent and isolated occurrence.

November 2025 saw a 200% increase in violent crimes compared to the previous month, rising from 1 to 3 incidents. This surge, though significant in absolute terms, still represents a rate of 0.0 per 1,000 residents—100% below the UK average of 2.6 per 1,000 for the same category. Public order offences also doubled, increasing from 0 to 1, but this remains 100% below the UK average of 0.5 per 1,000. Anti-social behaviour, which accounted for 20% of total crimes, is 100% below its UK average of 1.1 per 1,000. These changes align with seasonal factors such as darker evenings and Bonfire Night, which may temporarily elevate risks in public spaces. Despite these fluctuations, Torfaen’s overall crime profile remains markedly safer than the national average, with no category exceeding UK benchmarks.

In November 2025, Torfaen’s crime rate of 0.1 per 1,000 residents remains exceptionally low compared to the UK average of 7.3 per 1,000. This equates to one reported crime for every 18,824 residents over the course of the month—a figure that underscores the area’s relative safety. Daily crime statistics show an average of 0 crimes per day, a local metric that highlights the rarity of incidents even during peak activity periods like Black Friday and Bonfire Night. When scaled to the population of 94,119, the monthly exposure rate suggests that the likelihood of encountering crime is minimal for most residents. This contrasts sharply with UK-wide trends, where the average resident faces significantly higher exposure. While month-on-month changes show increases in violent and public order offences, these shifts remain within the context of an already low baseline, further emphasizing the area’s overall security profile.
