Brynteg Crime Rate June 2025 | Monthly Statistics

In June 2025, Brynteg (Wrexham) recorded a crime rate of 6.0 per 1,000 residents, placing it 25.9% below the UK average of 8.1 per 1,000. This lower-than-national rate suggests a relatively safer environment for residents, though the month’s crime profile reveals a mix of trends that reflect local dynamics. The most common crimes reported were violence and sexual offences (19 incidents, 33.9% of total), followed by anti-social behaviour (14 incidents, 25.0%). These figures highlight the area’s ongoing challenges with interpersonal conflict, which may be influenced by factors such as community density or local social structures. Seasonally, June marks the beginning of summer, a time when increased activity in public spaces could contribute to higher rates of anti-social behaviour and other offences. However, the area’s violent crime rate of 2.1 per 1,000 is 27% below the UK average, indicating that local efforts—whether through policing, community initiatives, or other interventions—may be effectively mitigating some risks. Meanwhile, property crimes accounted for 32% of all incidents (18 total), with other theft (7 incidents) and criminal damage (6 incidents) emerging as significant concerns. These figures align with the broader UK trend of property crimes being a major component of total crime, though Brynteg’s rate for these categories is lower than the national average. The seasonal context of June—longer days, the start of summer tourism, and potential changes in local routines—likely plays a role in shaping these patterns. For example, the rise in public order offences may correlate with increased social gatherings or events, while the drop in drug-related crimes could reflect a seasonal lull in illicit activity. Overall, Brynteg’s crime rate underscores a balance between local challenges and comparative safety, with the area’s residents experiencing a lower risk than the UK average but still facing specific issues that warrant attention.

June 2025 saw sharp increases in specific crime categories, with other theft rising by 133.3% (3 to 7 incidents) and public order offences doubling from 2 to 4. These shifts may reflect heightened activity during the summer months, when local events or increased foot traffic could contribute to such trends. Meanwhile, drug-related crimes fell by two-thirds (from 3 to 1), a drop that aligns with seasonal patterns where illicit activity may wane during warmer weather. The area’s violent crime rate of 2.1 per 1,000 is 27% below the UK average, suggesting that local factors—such as community engagement or policing efforts—likely play a role in keeping these incidents lower than expected. For residents, the most immediate concern appears to be the surge in other theft, which now accounts for 12.5% of all crimes reported in June.

Brynteg’s crime rate in June 2025 rose 36.3% from the previous month, climbing to 6.0 per 1,000 residents from 4.4 per 1,000. This increase, while notable, still places the area 25.9% below the UK average of 8.1 per 1,000. On a daily basis, the area saw roughly two crimes reported each day in June, a figure that may reflect seasonal patterns as summer tourism begins to ramp up. Over the course of the month, one reported crime occurred for every 165 residents, a rate that translates to a relatively low personal risk for most. This monthly exposure is significantly lower than the UK average, which would equate to a higher frequency of crimes per resident. The population context further underscores that Brynteg’s crime levels, even with the month-on-month increase, remain well within a range that suggests a safer environment compared to the national picture.
