Caution

Overall safety score

“Go with care. Hayti is a deeply historic neighborhood featuring significant cultural landmarks like the Hayti Heritage Center just south of Downtown Durham. While daytime visits for cultural programs and community dining are generally fine, visitors should exercise caution after dark due to elevated property and violent crime rates across the surrounding corridor.”

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.
