STEP 1

Data Collection

We analyse 12 months of Police.UK data within a 1-mile radius of your postcode

STEP 2

Weighted Analysis

Crime types are weighted by severity (violent crime scores higher than bicycle theft)

STEP 3

Benchmarking

Compare against national, regional, and local averages to understand relative risk

STEP 4

Risk Score

Final score (0-100) with clear ranges from Low to High risk classification

Transparency Note

Our methodology is based on publicly available Police.UK data. Scores are indicative and should be used alongside other due diligence measures. Past crime rates do not guarantee future safety.
