Tidworth Crime Rate June 2025 | Monthly Statistics

Tidworth’s crime rate in June 2025 stood at 3.1 per 1,000 residents, a figure 61.7% below the UK average of 8.1 per 1,000. This stark contrast with national trends underscores the area’s generally low crime profile, particularly in violent offences, which accounted for 51.1% of all reported incidents. Violence and sexual offences, the most common category, occurred at a rate of 1.6 per 1,000 residents—44% below the UK average. This suggests that Tidworth’s built-up area, despite its proximity to rural Wiltshire, maintains a safer environment for violent crimes, possibly due to its relatively small population and limited nightlife. Anti-social behaviour, the second most frequent category, was recorded at 0.5 per 1,000 residents—65% below the UK average—highlighting a community that may prioritise social cohesion or have effective local policing. The start of summer in June, with its extended daylight and growing tourism, may have influenced crime patterns, though the data shows no significant spikes in theft from the person or burglary, which are typically linked to tourist areas. However, the 43% increase in bicycle theft compared to the UK average raises questions about local factors, such as the presence of cycling routes or the timing of events that could attract cyclists. The overall low crime rate, combined with a 31% monthly decline from the previous month, suggests a stable and improving environment in Tidworth, though targeted increases in specific categories like vehicle crime warrant further observation.

June 2025 saw notable fluctuations in specific crime categories, with vehicle crime surging by 200% (from 1 to 3 incidents) and bicycle theft doubling (from 0 to 1). These increases contrast sharply with declines in other theft (-66.7%) and anti-social behaviour (-55.6%), which may reflect seasonal shifts in community activity. The violent crime category, accounting for 51.1% of all incidents, remained below the UK average for violence and sexual offences (44% lower), suggesting Tidworth’s built-up area maintains a safer profile in this domain. However, bicycle theft’s 43% increase above the UK average (0.1 per 1,000) raises questions about local factors, such as the presence of cycling infrastructure or changes in commuter patterns. The significant drop in anti-social behaviour, combined with a 33.3% reduction in other crime, indicates a possible alignment with summer’s longer evenings and increased social engagement. Residents may find the 100% rise in vehicle crime particularly noteworthy, as it could signal targeted activity in local car parks or transport hubs.

Tidworth's crime rate in June 2025 (3.1 per 1,000 residents) represents a 31.0% decrease from the previous month's rate of 4.5 per 1,000. This decline aligns with a broader trend observed in similar areas during early summer, when increased daylight and community activity may contribute to reduced opportunities for crime. On a daily basis, Tidworth experienced roughly two crimes per day in June, a figure that reflects the area’s generally low crime profile compared to national averages. Over the course of the month, one reported crime occurred for every 320 residents, a statistic that provides context for local residents assessing their risk. When scaled to Tidworth’s population of 15,051, the monthly crime count of 47 illustrates a manageable level of incidents relative to the size of the built-up area. This contrast with the UK’s average crime rate of 8.1 per 1,000 highlights Tidworth’s position as a relatively safe community, particularly when compared to more densely populated or urban centres where crime rates tend to be higher. The reduction in anti-social behaviour (down 55.6%) and other theft (down 66.7%) further supports the notion of a seasonal dip in non-violent crime, possibly linked to warmer weather and increased outdoor activities.
