Brynteg (Wrexham) Crime Rate July 2025 | Monthly Statistics

For an area of 9,265 residents, 57 crimes in July 2025 equate to approximately 0.61% of the population being directly affected. This rate of 6.2 crimes per 1,000 residents places Brynteg (Wrexham) 27.9% below the UK average of 8.6 per 1,000, a disparity that may partly reflect the area’s relatively low population density and limited commercial activity compared to larger urban centres. Violence and sexual offences dominated the crime profile, accounting for 45.6% of all reported incidents — 26 cases in total — with a rate of 2.8 per 1,000, 8% below the UK average. Anti-social behaviour followed closely, contributing 22.8% of incidents, while public order offences, though lower in absolute numbers, exceeded the UK average by 9%. July’s peak summer conditions likely influenced these patterns, with festivals, school holidays, and increased foot traffic in local areas potentially amplifying opportunities for both violent and disorderly conduct. The absence of significant property crime — with only 11 incidents reported — contrasts sharply with the UK average, suggesting that residential areas in Brynteg may benefit from stronger community cohesion or lower concentrations of high-value assets. Seasonal factors, such as extended daylight hours and outdoor events, may have shifted focus away from property-related offences toward interpersonal conflicts and public disturbances.

July 2025 saw notable shifts in crime patterns, with public order offences increasing by 50% compared to June, rising from 4 to 6 incidents. This jump, coupled with a 100% rise in shoplifting (from 0 to 2 cases), suggests that the summer tourism season and associated events may have introduced new dynamics to local policing challenges. Conversely, other theft offences fell sharply by 71.4%, from 7 to 2 incidents, possibly reflecting improved security measures or reduced opportunities during the busy summer period. Violent crimes remained the most significant category, with 26 incidents — 8% below the UK average — though the rate of 2.8 per 1,000 highlights the persistent need for targeted interventions in areas with higher concentrations of social interactions. The 100% increase in 'other crime' (from 0 to 1 incident) underscores the importance of capturing emerging offence types, even if they remain statistically rare. Residents should be aware that while overall crime rates remain low, the nature of incidents may evolve rapidly during peak tourism months, requiring adaptive community responses.

Brynteg’s crime rate of 6.2 per 1,000 in July 2025 represents a marginal 1.8% increase from June’s 6.0 per 1,000, indicating a stable trend despite seasonal fluctuations. On a daily basis, this translates to roughly 2 crimes reported per day — a figure that, when considered alongside the area’s population of 9,265, equates to 1 reported crime for every 163 residents over the course of the month. This monthly exposure rate, while modest, provides context for local residents assessing their personal risk profiles. The area’s performance relative to the UK average is striking: 27.9% below the national rate, a gap that widens further when examining specific categories. For instance, anti-social behaviour in Brynteg occurs at 1.4 per 1,000 — 10% below the UK average — suggesting that community policing strategies or local social norms may be effectively mitigating such incidents. However, public order offences in Brynteg exceed the UK average by 9%, a discrepancy that could be linked to the area’s role as a hub for summer events or its proximity to larger urban centres. These comparisons highlight both the strengths and potential vulnerabilities of Brynteg’s crime profile, offering valuable insights for residents and local authorities alike.
