Mira scores 51 out of 100 for overall safety — average crime, on a scale where 50 is the average for Greece. It is home to about 65 people at 618 people per km².
The score is absolute, not a ranking: 50 is the offence rate for Greece as a whole, 100 the safest end of the scale and 0 the least safe, and every doubling of the rate costs the same number of points wherever you are. Regional units are scored from Eurostat's police-recorded offence rates per 100,000 inhabitants. Greece publishes nothing finer, so municipalities and districts share out their region's measured rate by how built-up they are and by documented local reporting — treat those two levels as an estimate, not a count of reported crime.
What Mira is actually like
An inland community of the Patras municipal unit in the hills east of the city, listed alongside Souli and Elikistra. A small upland settlement of houses and olive ground with a mainly older population and some weekend use. No institutions and nothing in the 2024-2026 police or press record names Moira.
After dark
Silent and dark, with no lighting away from the core and no through traffic. Nothing documented.
What to watch for
- Unlit hill roads at night
- Houses left empty midweek
Staying here
Only as a rural retreat with a car. No use for an early Italy ferry; allow 30-40 minutes to the South Port.
