Delitos contra la propiedad en Pavlos Melas
Παύλος Μελάς · Municipio
Estimación modelizada: cómo se obtienePavlos Melas obtiene 42 sobre 100 en delitos contra la propiedad — criminalidad por encima de la media, en una escala donde 50 es la media de Grecia. Allí viven unas 99.245 personas, 4111 por km².
La puntuación es absoluta, no una clasificación: 50 es la tasa de delitos de Grecia en su conjunto, 100 el extremo más seguro de la escala y 0 el menos seguro, y cada vez que la tasa se duplica se pierden los mismos puntos en cualquier lugar. Las unidades regionales se puntúan a partir de las tasas de delitos registrados por la policía por cada 100.000 habitantes que publica Eurostat. Grecia no publica nada más detallado, así que los municipios y los barrios se reparten la tasa medida de su región según su grado de urbanización y la información local documentada: toma esos dos niveles como una estimación, no como un recuento de delitos registrados.

Barrios urbanos corrientes
Ningún problema concreto más allá de los de cualquier centro urbano denso.
- 48EfkarpiaΕυκαρπία · criminalidad mediaThe northern municipal unit of Pavlos Melas, around 15,500 people, and the newest and least dense of the three. It grew outward from an old settlement through worker housing in the east and the Efedroupoli development from the early 1990s, and it contains a string of small named sub-settlements including Nikopoli, Euxeinoupoli, Efedroupoli, Travmatioupoli, Anthokipoi, Filothei and Agios Georgios-Palia Efkarpia. It is described as one of the more promising residential areas on Thessaloniki's fringe, with an active property market. No crime reporting singles out Efkarpia in 2024-2026.
Ojo con: Sparse foot traffic and lighting on newer peripheral streets
- 48MeteoraΜετέωρα · criminalidad mediaA named neighbourhood of the Polichni unit, on the boundary between Polichni and its neighbours - Polichni is explicitly described as bordering Meteora. It is ordinary dense residential housing with local shops. There is no crime reporting, municipal safety material or travel coverage specific to Meteora, and searches are entirely dominated by the monasteries of Meteora in Thessaly, which makes it one of the harder names in this municipality to research honestly. Nothing here justifies either a warning or a recommendation.
Ojo con: Nothing area-specific is documented
- 48Kato AnthokipoiΚάτω Ανθόκηποι · criminalidad mediaThe lower half of the Anthokipoi subdivision in the Polichni unit, listed in municipal records as one of a pair with Ano Anthokipoi. It is a handful of residential streets, not a neighbourhood with a centre, and it has no independent coverage in police releases, press, municipal safety material or travel writing. There is genuinely nothing to report about Kato Anthokipoi specifically, and any guide that claims otherwise is filling space.
Ojo con: Nothing area-specific is documented
- 48Megas AlexandrosΜέγας Αλέξανδρος · criminalidad mediaThis name does not appear in the official subdivision lists for any of the three Pavlos Melas municipal units in the sources consulted. In local use it refers to the area around the Megas Alexandros avenue and its surrounding blocks - a street-derived neighbourhood label rather than a recognised administrative district, of the kind common across western Thessaloniki. That matters for a safety guide: there is no boundary, no population figure, no municipal page and no crime reporting attached to it, and nothing found in 2024-2026 sources names it.
Ojo con: Treat any confident claim about this specific name with suspicion - it has no documented record
- 47Anothen AsylouΆνωθεν Ασύλου · criminalidad mediaLiterally 'above the asylum' - a subdivision named for its position uphill from the former psychiatric hospital grounds, and listed in municipal sources under both the Stavroupoli and Polichni units. It is peripheral residential housing on the upper slope of the municipality. There is no crime reporting, municipal safety statement or travel coverage specific to Anothen Asylou; it is one of the smallest and least documented names on this list, and the honest position is that no local record exists.
Ojo con: Sparse foot traffic and lighting on the upper peripheral streets
- 47AnthokipoiΑνθόκηποι · criminalidad mediaA small subdivision on the Polichni-Efkarpia boundary, listed in municipal sources under both units, which is why you will see it described inconsistently. It is peripheral, low-density residential housing on the northern fringe of the urban area. There is no crime reporting, no municipal safety statement and no travel coverage specific to Anthokipoi. This is one of the many Pavlos Melas micro-subdivisions where the honest answer is that no local record exists and the municipality's overall picture is all there is to go on.
Ojo con: Nothing area-specific is documented
- 47OmoniaΟμόνοια · criminalidad mediaA named residential subdivision of the Stavroupoli unit, listed in municipal and encyclopaedic sources alongside Pronoia as one of the central residential areas. It has no separate commercial centre, no landmark and no coverage of its own. Searches for it are swamped by Omonia square in Athens, which is a completely different place with a completely different reputation - do not let that bleed across. There is no police reporting, press coverage or travel writing specific to Omonia in Stavroupoli.
Ojo con: Do not confuse with Omonia square in Athens
- 47Viomichaniki Periochi PolichnisΒιομηχανική Περιοχή Πολίχνης · criminalidad mediaThe workshop and light-industry strip on Polichni's edge - warehouses, garages, builders' merchants and yards rather than homes. It is a working zone, not a neighbourhood, and there is no dedicated coverage of it in police releases, municipal safety material or press. The verdict is not about danger from residents: there are none. It is that an industrial estate with no footway culture, no passing trade and nobody around after closing time is simply not somewhere to walk, and nothing there rewards a visit. It is somewhere nobody stays rather than somewhere to avoid: there is no crime record attached to it, only no reason to be there.
Ojo con: Deserted after working hours
- 47Ano IlioupoliΆνω Ηλιούπολη · criminalidad mediaThe upper half of Ilioupoli, on the higher ground of the Stavroupoli unit. It is listed in municipal and encyclopaedic sources as a distinct neighbourhood but has no separate coverage in police releases, Greek press or travel writing - the 2024 shop break-in reporting names Ilioupoli without distinguishing upper from lower. This is dense residential Thessaloniki with corner shops and no centre of its own. There is nothing area-specific to report, and no basis for treating it differently from Stavroupoli as a whole.
Ojo con: Nothing area-specific is documented beyond the wider Stavroupoli shop break-in pattern
- 47NikopoliΝικόπολη · criminalidad mediaA subdivision name that appears twice inside Pavlos Melas - listed both among the Stavroupoli unit's neighbourhoods and among Efkarpia's - which tells you how small and how loosely bounded these units are. It is peripheral residential housing on the municipality's northern side. There is no crime reporting, municipal safety statement or travel coverage specific to Nikopoli. Note also the unrelated ancient Nikopoli in Epirus dominates search results, so anything claiming detailed local knowledge of this one deserves scepticism.
Ojo con: Sparse foot traffic on peripheral streets after dark
- 47PronoiaΠρόνοια · criminalidad mediaA residential subdivision of the Stavroupoli unit, listed in municipal sources as one of its central residential areas alongside Omonia. The name comes from the welfare-housing origins of these interwar and postwar settlements. It has no commercial centre, landmark or separate identity, and no crime reporting, municipal safety material or travel coverage specific to it. The word pronoia is also a common Greek noun, which makes searching for it close to useless. Nothing supports treating it differently from Stavroupoli generally.
Ojo con: Overnight shopfront break-ins across the wider Stavroupoli area
- 47AmpelonesΑμπελώνες · criminalidad mediaAn older residential zone of the Stavroupoli unit, listed with Terpsithea and Neoktista. The name means vineyards, recording what the land was before the city reached it. Today it is ordinary dense housing. There is no crime reporting, municipal safety statement or travel coverage specific to Ampelones, and the name is generic enough that searches return farming content and a village in Larissa rather than anything about this neighbourhood. There is nothing area-specific to report in either direction.

- 47IlioupoliΗλιούπολη · criminalidad mediaA residential neighbourhood of the Stavroupoli unit, split in local usage into Ano and Kato Ilioupoli. It appears by name in one piece of reporting that matters: the February 2024 account of a wave of shop break-ins across western Thessaloniki listed Ilioupoli alongside Kordelio, Evosmos, Ampelokipoi and Polichni. Beyond that it is unremarkable dense housing with neighbourhood shops. Note the name is shared with a much larger Athens suburb and with Kato Ilioupoli in Evosmos, which muddies searches badly.
Ojo con: Overnight shopfront break-ins
- 47Kato IlioupoliΚάτω Ηλιούπολη · criminalidad mediaThe lower half of Ilioupoli within the Stavroupoli unit. Be careful with the name: a separate Kato Ilioupoli is also listed as a subdivision of Evosmos in the neighbouring municipality, and Greek reporting does not always make clear which is meant. Nothing in 2024-2026 police releases or press coverage identifies this Kato Ilioupoli specifically; the only relevant reporting names Ilioupoli undifferentiated in the 2024 western shop break-in wave. It is ordinary dense residential housing.
Ojo con: Name collision with Kato Ilioupoli in Evosmos when reading local reports
- 47TerpsitheaΤερψιθέα · criminalidad mediaOne of the older residential zones of the Stavroupoli unit, listed in municipal sources alongside Ampelones and Neoktista. It is dense, long-settled housing without a distinct commercial centre. There is no crime reporting, municipal safety material or travel coverage specific to Terpsithea, and the name is shared with other settlements in Greece, which makes searches unreliable. The relevant safety picture is Stavroupoli's: overnight shopfront break-ins and periodic police operations on under-18s, not risk to people on the street.

- 43PolichniΠολίχνη · criminalidad por encima de la mediaThe northeastern municipal unit of Pavlos Melas, about 39,000 people, an independent municipality from 1973 until the 2011 merger and still the administrative heart of the area - the Pavlos Melas police station and crime squad are both based here. It borders Efkarpia, Neapoli, Sykies, Stavroupoli and Meteora. Polichni is ordinary dense residential Thessaloniki: apartment blocks, local shopping streets, sports clubs, Byzantine watermills and a nature park at its edge. It was named among the western areas hit by the 2024 wave of shop break-ins.
