Overall safety score

“Go with care. Hayes is a charming, largely quiet residential neighborhood situated just minutes from downtown Durham and Duke University. While violent crime is relatively rare on its interior streets, routine urban property crimes like vehicle break-ins occur, so normal precautions are advised.”

About the area

Historic / Tree-LinedQuiet ResidentialBungalow Charm

Hayes is a historic, leafy pocket in south-central Durham bordered by Morehead Hill and Forest Hills. It features historic bungalows, quiet residential streets, and easy proximity to the vibrant dining and cultural scenes of downtown Durham and the American Tobacco Campus.

Scores are safety-driven: recent crime levels and local news, plus Census data on income and poverty, housing, education and household make-up, and access to vehicles, internet and health coverage. Walk and bike scores are shown separately and do not affect the safety score. A guide, not a guarantee. Neighborhood outlines come from official city and US Census boundary data.
