Tewkesbury crime rate and statistics (council area)
Updated October 2026.
Police published 2,442 street-crime records for the Tewkesbury council area from September 2025 to August 2026. That is 59.5% fewer than in the 12 months before. The rate is 25.7 per 1,000 residents counted in the Census 2021. A residents-only rate reads high where many people visit. Police locations are approximate.
These figures cover the whole area Tewkesbury council runs. Its boundary can differ from the place people call Tewkesbury: it can take in other towns and villages, and part of a town can sit in a neighbouring council area.
September 2025 to August 2026. Street-crime records include anti-social behaviour.

Published street-crime records (including anti-social behaviour), September 2025 to August 2026, per 1,000 usual residents in the Census 2021.
Tewkesbury council area
25.7
Residents are the Census 2021 usual residents of every postcode the ONS Postcode Directory places in this council area, added up by CrimeMapsUK from the census postcode counts. Records are assigned through the same postcodes, so both numbers cover the same ground. The total can differ slightly from the council's official population.
2,442 records and 94,940 residents. Residents-only rates overstate crime where many people visit who do not live there, such as city centres, stations, and retail parks. Residents are counted at March 2021 while records are current, so areas with many newer homes can read higher.
No Gloucestershire Constabulary or England and Wales comparison is shown, because not every force involved has published every month of this window.
Rates cover England and Wales only. Residents: Office for National Statistics, Census 2021 postcode estimates, Open Government Licence v3.0. How rates are built.

Where records cluster in the Tewkesbury council area
Records by part of the Tewkesbury council area: the south-west 1,648, the north-west 619, the north-east 293, the north 227, the west 117, the east 113, the south 82, the south-east 27, the centre 10.
North is at the top. Each hexagon is about 1.2 km across, the size the crime map uses zoomed out, and holds at least one of the Tewkesbury council area's postcodes; darker ones hold more records. Hexagons at the edge also hold records from neighbouring council areas, and the Tewkesbury council area's records placed outside these hexagons are not drawn, so the map's counts won't add up to the page's total. Police place each record at an approximate public point, so this shows which parts of the Tewkesbury council area records cluster in, not where incidents happened. Striped months add only the records that were published. Explore the Tewkesbury council area on the crime map.
Year by year
Calendar-year totals for the Tewkesbury council area (December 2013 to August 2026).
A council area follows the council's boundary (ONS local authority district E07000083), which can differ from the place people call Tewkesbury.
Published locations are approximate, and each record counts for the council area of its nearest postcode, using the council codes in the ONS Postcode Directory. Counts near the boundary are indicative.
These are counts of published police records, not all crime, and not a safety score.
Other sites can show a different figure for Tewkesbury. These counts include anti-social behaviour, cover the 12 published months shown, and assign each record by its nearest postcode. The rate divides by Census 2021 residents of the same postcodes, not by a later mid-year population estimate.
Districts with a page and at least 5% of their live postcodes in this council area. A district can cross a council boundary, so its page counts records on both sides.
