These figures are deliberately labelled as historical. The latest borough-level Fire Facts workbook used ends in 2022, so they must not be presented as a current 2025 total.
Official risk context
LFB plans for the borough—not a league-table rating
LFB’s Assessment of Risk considers foreseeable risks across London, while Borough Risk Management Plans explain local priorities and actions. The cited publications do not provide a single reusable “low, medium or high” classification for ranking all boroughs, so this site does not invent one.
