Farncombe Crime Rate June 2025 | Monthly Statistics

Farncombe’s crime profile in June 2025 reveals a distinct balance of violent and non-violent offences, shaped by the area’s small built-up character and seasonal dynamics. The overall crime rate of 3.6 per 1,000 residents places the area 55.6% below the UK average, a disparity that underscores the effectiveness of local policing or the influence of Farncombe’s relatively low population density and community cohesion. Violence and sexual offences accounted for 34.9% of all crimes, followed by anti-social behaviour (16.3%) and public order offences (14.0%). This mix suggests a focus on interpersonal conflicts and disorder, consistent with the challenges of managing a close-knit built-up area where social interactions are frequent. The seasonal context of June—marking the start of summer and the early stages of tourism—may have influenced these patterns, as longer daylight hours and increased foot traffic could both deter and inadvertently facilitate certain types of crime. While violent offences remain the most prevalent category, the relatively low rates of property crimes (such as burglary and vehicle crime) compared to UK averages may reflect Farncombe’s limited commercial infrastructure or the presence of effective local deterrents. The UK average for violence and sexual offences is 2.9 per 1,000, with Farncombe’s rate of 1.3 per 1,000 indicating a 55% deficit, a figure that could be attributed to the area’s smaller scale and stronger community policing efforts. However, the 150% increase in 'other crime' compared to the UK average (0.2 per 1,000) raises questions about unaddressed vulnerabilities, linked to niche activities or regulatory gaps. This data highlights the importance of maintaining targeted interventions to address emerging trends while preserving the area’s overall safety record.

June 2025 saw a stark shift in crime patterns, with 'other crime' surging by 150% (from 2 to 5 incidents) and anti-social behaviour rising by 75% (from 4 to 7). These increases contrast with sharp declines in burglary (-75%), vehicle crime (-66.7%), and drugs offences (-50%), suggesting a seasonal reallocation of criminal activity. The dominance of violence and sexual offences (34.9% of total crimes) and anti-social behaviour (16.3%) highlights a persistent focus on interpersonal conflicts, likely influenced by the area’s built-up environment and community density. 'other crime' in Farncombe was 150% above the UK average (0.2 per 1,000), a figure that may reflect local-specific factors such as unregulated commercial activity or gaps in enforcement. Residents should remain vigilant, particularly as anti-social behaviour and violence remain high compared to national trends.

Farncombe’s crime rate in June 2025 fell to 3.6 per 1,000 residents, a 23.1% decrease from the previous month’s rate of 4.7. This decline aligns with seasonal patterns typical of June, when longer daylight hours and the early stages of summer tourism may reduce opportunities for certain crimes. On a daily basis, the area saw approximately one crime reported each day, a figure that, while low, reflects the small population of 11,862. Over the course of the month, one reported crime occurred for roughly every 276 residents, a statistic that contextualises the scale of incidents relative to the local population. When compared to the UK average of 8.1 per 1,000, Farncombe’s rate remains significantly lower, underscoring the area’s generally safer profile. This monthly exposure figure, while modest, highlights the importance of maintaining community vigilance, particularly as tourism and seasonal activity increase in the coming months.
