For the past year, ScoreMyStreet has helped thousands of people understand crime levels across UK postcodes. Today, we’re excited to announce a major evolution: ScoreMyStreet now provides a full picture of every neighbourhood — far beyond crime statistics alone.
Crime data is essential, but it’s only one part of what makes an area feel safe, liveable, and convenient. People making decisions about where to live or where to raise a family need more context. Over the past month, we’ve expanded ScoreMyStreet to include a wide set of neighbourhood insights designed to help users make truly informed choices.
You can now explore nearby amenities such as supermarkets, parks, gyms, cafés, and essential services. Our new schools feature gives you visibility into local school performance and nearby education options, while healthcare data highlights the closest hospitals, GP practices, and emergency facilities.
We’ve also introduced user-generated reports — real feedback from local residents on issues, improvements, and experiences that official datasets don’t always capture. Combined with crime data, these community insights help create a more complete, honest representation of an area.
This expansion marks ScoreMyStreet’s transition from a crime-only tool to a full neighbourhood insight platform. Whether you're moving home, exploring new areas, or simply curious about your surroundings, ScoreMyStreet now offers more reasons to discover, compare, and understand every postcode in the UK.
This is just the beginning. We’re working on even more features including interactive heatmaps, school catchment visualisations, deeper filtering, and expanded postcode comparisons. Thank you for being part of ScoreMyStreet’s journey — we’re only getting started.
