Crime Risk Scores
Hurlingham • 12 Months Ending April 2026
The typical five-minute walk within Hurlingham has a crime risk score of 483. This is based on analysis of 200 nearby areas within Hurlingham, with "most" referring to roughly two thirds of the nearby locations.
Crime risk scores are on a scale of 1 to 1,000 and consider the severity of the crimes involved, as determined by sentencing guidelines. A score of 1 represents the lowest risk, and 1,000 the highest risk. This approach ensures that - unlike overall crime rate figures - bicycle theft is not given the same importance in Hurlingham's risk scores as, for example, robbery, or violence & sexual offences.
Within a five-minute walk of the typical location in Hurlingham, crime risk scores are typically around 483, while in Hammersmith and Fulham they are average 554.
