Rhoose Crime Rate November 2025 | Monthly Statistics

Rhoose’s November 2025 crime rate of 2.3 per 1,000 residents marks a stark contrast to the UK average of 7.3 per 1,000, a 68.5% deficit that underscores the area’s strong safety record. This figure, derived from 21 reported crimes, translates to one crime per day—a rate that, while not zero, is exceptionally low for a built-up area within the Vale of Glamorgan. The breakdown of incidents reveals a crime profile heavily skewed toward violent offences, which accounted for 52.4% of total incidents (11 cases). This category remains 53% below the UK average of 2.6 per 1,000, a gap that highlights Rhoose’s relative immunity to violent crime despite its proximity to larger urban centres. Public order offences, at 14.3% of all crimes, also lag well behind the UK average, with 3 incidents reported—a 36% deficit compared to the national benchmark. The presence of only 3 property crimes (1.2 per 1,000) further reinforces the area’s low-risk profile, though this figure is dwarfed by the prominence of violent offences. Seasonal factors, such as the shortening days and limited nightlife in November, likely contribute to the subdued crime environment. The absence of major events like festivals or large retail promotions may have dampened opportunities for anti-social behaviour and public disorder. The area’s compact, residential character—characterised by low-density housing and limited commercial zones—may also play a role in reducing opportunities for certain crimes, such as vehicle theft or unmonitored public spaces. This suggests that Rhoose’s physical and demographic traits, combined with its seasonal rhythms, create a unique context where crime remains consistently low, even during months with increased foot traffic or economic activity. The overall crime rate, while modest, is a testament to the area’s ability to maintain order and safety through a combination of environmental design, community cohesion, and seasonal dynamics.

November 2025 saw significant shifts in crime patterns compared to October, with notable increases in 'other crime' (+100%) and 'theft from the person' (+100%), both rising from zero to two incidents. These spikes, though small in absolute terms, suggest emerging trends that warrant closer attention. Conversely, anti-social behaviour dropped by 71.4% (from seven to two incidents), and criminal damage and arson fell by 66.7%, likely reflecting the seasonal lull in public gatherings and events. The violent crime category, which made up 52.4% of all incidents, remained 53% below the UK average of 2.6 per 1,000, illustrating a consistent safety advantage in this area. Public order offences, at 14.3% of total crimes, were also 36% below the UK average, a figure that aligns with the area’s relatively low population density and limited nightlife activity. The rise in 'other crime' and 'theft from the person' may signal new challenges, though the overall rate remains well below the UK average. For residents, the 1-in-442 monthly exposure rate provides a concrete benchmark for understanding local safety. The absence of major public events in November, such as festivals or large-scale retail promotions, may have contributed to the decline in anti-social behaviour and criminal damage, though this remains speculative without further data on community engagement or policing activity.

Rhoose’s November 2025 crime rate of 2.3 per 1,000 residents reflects a 36.5% decline from October’s 3.6 per 1,000, a shift consistent with seasonal patterns observed in this area. With 21 crimes reported over 30 days, this equates to approximately one crime per day—a frequency that, while not negligible, remains markedly lower than national averages. When scaled to the local population, the monthly exposure rate of 1 in 442 residents underscores a safety profile that is higher than many comparable communities. This statistic is particularly meaningful for residents, as it provides a tangible sense of how infrequently crimes occur relative to the population size. The contrast with the UK average, while not directly comparable in this section, highlights the area’s consistent performance in maintaining low crime levels despite seasonal fluctuations. The local context—shorter evenings, limited large-scale events, and a lower population density—likely contributes to this trend, though such patterns are not unique to Rhoose and reflect broader seasonal dynamics in similar low-density areas. The built-up nature of Rhoose, with its compact residential and commercial zones, may also play a role in reducing opportunities for certain crimes, such as vehicle-related thefts or unmonitored public spaces. This suggests that the area’s physical layout, combined with its demographic profile, creates an environment where crime is less likely to escalate, even during months with increased foot traffic from seasonal activities like Black Friday shopping or Bonfire Night celebrations.
