Yes, and it isn't a close call. Crime runs well below the district's rate. Hardly anyone is out of work. Hardly anyone lives in an overcrowded home. Quiet isn't the same as untouched, but here it comes close.
In the year from June 2025 to May 2026, police recorded 155 crimes in Limpsfield, a published rate of about 43 per 1,000 residents. That's roughly 39% below the average for Tandridge. For a village, 155 is still a real number, but for a year it's small.
Across Tandridge as a whole, the published rate for the same year was about 70 per 1,000 residents, against about 43 in Limpsfield. The district isn't a trouble spot either, so being well below it puts the village near the quiet end of a quiet part of Surrey.
It's a spread-out, settled area. There are about 980 people per square kilometre on average, unemployment is about 1% and so is overcrowding. These numbers describe the place, not the reason crime is low. They do show a village where the evening traffic is mostly people coming home from work.
The mix of crime needs care, because 155 crimes is a small base, and a handful of incidents can move any share by several points. Violence and sexual offences made up about 30% of recorded crime, against about 35% nationally. That category is the biggest almost everywhere and includes common assault without injury, so it's below the national share here, not above it. Anti-social behaviour was about 17%, against 16% nationally, so much the same. Other theft was about 12% against 7%, criminal damage and arson about 10% against 7%, and vehicle crime about 8% against 5%. Burglary made up about 9% of crime, against 4% nationally. That share sounds worse than it is: with so little crime of other kinds, a small number of break-ins takes up a bigger share of the total. Treat the mix as a snapshot of one year, not as a description of the village. Big detached houses set back behind hedges are private from the lane, which means a burglar can't be seen from it either.
What happens after a report is a separate question from how safe the area is, and the answer isn't local. Surrey Police charges a suspect in about 11% of cases, against about 12% nationally, which puts it 30th of 42 forces for the year to May 2026. About 36% of cases were closed with no suspect identified. That's a force-wide figure for the whole county, not Limpsfield's own. It shows your odds of seeing someone charged if something happens, not your odds of something happening.
Safety is one of Limpsfield's real strengths. Lock the back door and fit a decent light on the drive, and the rest of the odds are already in your favour.
