Inputs to the safety score

Months of data3
Per month290.3
Severity-weighted crimes per km² per month45.7 per km² per month
Search radius1.6 km

Recorded street-level crime within the search radius, weighted by offence type (violence and robbery x2, ASB x0.5), per km² per month, placed on a log scale from 1 (scores 100) to 300 (scores 0).

  • Counts recorded crime by location, not risk to any individual; busy city centres score lower because of footfall.
  • Locations are anonymised to nearby map points by the police.

Starts from the Environment Agency flood zone (Zone 1: 95, Zone 2: 60, Zone 3: 25), minus 10 if a flood warning area lies within 1 km (5 if only an alert area), minus 15 per active flood warning and 5 per active alert; a severe warning caps the score at 10.

  • Flood zones show the chance of river or sea flooding ignoring defences; they do not cover surface water or groundwater.
  • This is not a flood search. Use a professional search before buying.

Flood Zone 1 (low probability of flooding from rivers or the sea)

  • Flood alert: River Alt, Formby to Huyton

    Forecast rising river levels throughout the evening may lead to flooding. Flooding is possible from the evening of Friday 23 October . River levels will rise this evening and peak around midnight tonight. Locations most affected will be low lying land and roads near rivers. We are monitoring rainfall and river levels and we will continue to monitor throughout the evening. Avoid using low lying footpaths and any bridges near local watercourses. Take care and avoid walking, cycling or driving…

Flood zones show the chance of river or sea flooding ignoring defences. This is not a flood search; check the GOV.UK long-term flood risk service before buying.
