Is Croxteth Country Park safe?

Its SafeRoute safety index is 88 out of 100 — 30 points above the Liverpool median of 58, ranking 2nd of 64 Liverpool wards — based on 22 incidents reported to Merseyside Police within 1 km of the ward centre over the month to August 2026. Most of this ward is parkland or dock estate rather than housing, so a low count reflects how few people are here rather than how safe the streets are.

How is the Croxteth Country Park safety index calculated?
SafeRoute weights each police-recorded incident by severity (violence weighs more than shoplifting), sums the last published month within 1 km of the ward centre, and normalises against Liverpool rates onto a 0–100 scale — higher is safer. It describes reported crime only; it is not a guarantee of safety. The scale is calibrated within Liverpool, so scores compare wards to each other and cannot be read against another city's.
