Crime Risk Scores

Surrey Police • 12 Months Ending April 2026

 

The typical five-minute walk within Surrey Police has a crime risk score of 396. This is based on analysis of 44,427 nearby areas within Surrey Police, with "most" referring to roughly two thirds of the nearby locations.

Five Mins
396 crime risk score
Ten Mins
429 crime risk score
Fifteen Mins
463 crime risk score

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 Surrey Police's risk scores as, for example, robbery, or violence & sexual offences.

Within a five-minute walk of the typical location in Surrey Police, crime risk scores are typically around 396, while in National they are average 500.

Areas within a ten-minute walk typically see crime risk scores of 429 (500 for National), and scores within a fifteen-minute walk are most often around 463 (National 500).

Trends in Crime Risk

Surrey Police

 

Calculated via Seasonal and Trend decomposition using Loess, the Seasonality Adjusted line represents the original data with seasonality subtracted, and the Trend line has been plotted unadjusted. Overall trend direction has been identified using the Mann-Kendall trend test, and rate calculated from the slope of the best-fit line identified from linear regression.

The 10-year trend indicates a decrease of 16% in Surrey Police's crime risk score. This is potentially a strong signal of how the crime risk is evolving. Cross-referencing with major cultural events and Covid's impact during this time is advised.

Looking at the previous five years, the trend in Surrey Police's crime risk score is up by 1.7%. While potentially a good indicator of the overall risk trend, analysis may offer further insight when combined with the checks mentioned above.

Over the last year, Surrey Police's crime risk score has shown a downward trend of approximately 2.9%, indicating that the risk profile is going down. This is an extremely short time period for crime trend analysis, and caution should be exercised when interpreting this figure.
