Crime in Brooklands has shown a general upward trend in violent and property incidents from 2017 to 2025, with violent incidents rising from 82 in 2017 to 98 in 2024, and property incidents increasing from 160 in 2017 to 204 in 2025. However, 2026 data (partial year) shows a dramatic drop to only 2 violent and 23 property incidents, suggesting a potential improvement.

Overall, the long-term trend from 2017 to 2025 indicates worsening crime in the neighborhood, particularly in property and violent categories. The 2026 figures, while very low, cover only a short period and may not reflect a sustained change.

This property in Brooklands offers good transit connectivity and proximity to parks, schools, and basic amenities. However, the rising crime trend over recent years is a significant concern. Investors may find the property appealing due to its location near transit and educational institutions, but families and first-time buyers should carefully consider the safety data.

Given the crime statistics, the property is best suited for investors or commuters who prioritize transit access and are willing to accept the current neighborhood safety conditions. Retirees and families may want to monitor the improving 2026 trend before committing.
