In summary

Fulham Road is in the less-deprived top third of England, ranked #1,760 of 6,856 neighbourhoods nationally, and #6 of 21 in Kensington and Chelsea.

Typical homes here sold for about £920,000 over the past year, down 23% across five years (from 62 sales), 20% below the wider Kensington and Chelsea median of £1,150,000.

Recorded incidents, not convictions. Crimes are counted where they happen while residents are counted where they live, so busy town-centre, retail and nightlife areas show high per-resident rates because visitors bring incidents with them.
