How many crimes were recorded near Dungannon in the latest month, and what is counted?
PSNI recorded 81 crimes inside a one-mile radius of Dungannon town centre, using the Home Office categories it reports against. The same measure totals 1,035 over the twelve reported months in the table above. It counts recorded crime only, so it is not a measure of how many incidents were reported, prosecuted or resolved, and it says nothing about outcomes. Our methodology page spells that out.
Do I still need an alarm if burglary numbers near Dungannon are low?
A quiet month is a quiet month, not a guarantee. The one-mile count for Dungannon in August 2026 was 81 crimes with no burglary among them, while the twelve months in the table above total 1,035. Recorded crime in a centre this size moves about a good deal from month to month, and the circle does not cover every address with a Dungannon postcode. What an alarm buys is a response when the quiet month ends. We would rather size that honestly at a free survey than sell you a system off the back of one figure.
Which months were busiest near Dungannon over the last year?
Across the twelve reported months in the table above, October 2025 was the highest at 118 crimes and November 2025 the lowest at 71 crimes, on a total of 1,035. That spread is normal for a centre this size and it is the reason we publish the whole run rather than one headline. If you are deciding what to install, the pattern matters less than how your own property is approached and lit. If you would rather talk it through first, the office number is 028 7087 8077.
