NestScope Score
79/ 100
Partial score · Wales
A full NestScope Score relies on the England-only IMD backbone (plus schools, healthcare and crime data), so this is a partial score for Wales, based only on the layers actually covered here.
Official risk flags for context — deliberately not part of the NestScope score (they’re categorical hazards, not amenities).
