Bramley and Wonersh Crime Rate November 2025 | Monthly Statistics

November 2025 saw Bramley and Wonersh maintain a crime rate of 3.0 per 1,000 residents, placing the area 58.9% below the UK average of 7.3. This stark contrast to national trends reflects the area’s relatively low-risk profile, shaped by its compact built-up character and limited exposure to high-density urban dynamics. The most prevalent crime types were burglary and anti-social behaviour, each accounting for 26.7% of total reported incidents. These figures align with seasonal patterns typical of this time of year, when extended evening darkness and community events like Bonfire Night may amplify certain risks. The area’s property crime rate, though modest overall, included burglary at 0.8 per 1,000 residents—167% above the UK average for this category. This suggests a localised concentration of residential vulnerabilities, possibly linked to older housing stock or transient populations. Meanwhile, violent crime remained well below the UK average, with violence and sexual offences at 0.6 per 1,000. This is consistent with the area’s character as a quieter, more residential part of Waverley, where public spaces are less crowded than in larger cities. The low levels of theft from the person and vehicle crime further support this profile, indicating that routine commercial activity and transport networks are not central drivers of criminal opportunity here. Seasonal factors such as the approach of Christmas shopping and the timing of Black Friday sales may have influenced retail crime patterns, though no significant spikes were recorded in this month’s data. Overall, the crime picture illustrates a stable, low-risk environment where community cohesion and limited commercial density likely contribute to the area’s continued safety compared to national benchmarks.

The most striking shift in November 2025 was the 300% surge in anti-social behaviour, which rose from 1 to 4 incidents. This dramatic increase, while still a small absolute number, highlights the potential impact of seasonal events like Bonfire Night on community tensions. Burglary also doubled from 0 to 4 cases, pushing the local rate to 0.8 per 1,000—167% above the UK average for this category. This anomaly may reflect targeted vulnerabilities in specific properties, though the small sample size limits definitive conclusions. Conversely, violent crime fell by 40%, declining from 5 to 3 incidents. This decrease aligns with the area’s historically low violent crime rates, which are 77% below the UK average. The breakdown also reveals that non-violent crimes like criminal damage and arson rose by 100%. For residents, the most immediately relevant finding is the area’s overall crime rate being 58.9% below the national average, which underscores the effectiveness of local policing strategies and community engagement efforts. The absence of significant spikes in theft or vehicle crime further reinforces the area’s safety profile, despite the notable rise in anti-social behaviour. These patterns suggest that while occasional spikes in specific categories can occur, the broader crime environment remains stable and manageable.

Bramley and Wonersh’s November 2025 crime rate of 3.0 per 1,000 residents marks an 87.9% increase from the previous month’s rate of 1.6.9% below the UK average. This rise, while notable, is still within the context of an area that typically experiences far fewer crimes than most parts of the country. On a daily basis, the 15 total crimes reported over 30 days equate to roughly 0 crimes per day—a figure that, while low, may appear misleadingly sparse when considering the area’s small population. Over the course of the month, one reported crime occurred for every 339 residents, a monthly exposure rate that is exceptionally low compared to national standards. This statistic, when contextualised against the area’s population of 5,091, highlights the limited frequency of criminal activity even during periods of seasonal volatility. The comparison to the previous month reveals a significant shift, but the overall trajectory remains one of relative safety. Residents should note that while crime rates can fluctuate month-to-month, the area’s long-term trend has consistently been below the UK average. The daily crime count, though low, serves as a reminder that even small numbers can represent meaningful changes in local dynamics. This data underscores the importance of maintaining community vigilance, particularly during events that may temporarily increase the risk of anti-social behaviour or property crime.
