Hi Rob,

Thanks for getting in touch with finder. I hope all is well with you. :)

While we don’t have the stats available on our page, a quick search on the Internet would give you the answer. Upon checking, Chingford has a higher crime rate compared to Leytonstone.

You may also want to get in touch with the local police station to obtain a comprehensive crime rate report.

I hope this helps. Should you have further questions, please don’t hesitate to reach us out again.

Have a wonderful day!

Cheers,
Joshua
