Kallipoli scores 38 out of 100 (modelled estimate, Eurostat 2021–2024) for overall safety — above-average crime, on a scale where 50 is the average for Greece. Kallipoli has no police figures of its own. Its estimate is Piraeus's rate — Piraeus scores 37 for overall safety — and the 1 point between them comes from how the model shares Piraeus's total out, not from anything measured in Kallipoli. An estimated 4,094 people live there: the 2021 census counts the surrounding community as a whole, and this is its share by area.
The score is absolute, not a ranking: 50 is the offence rate of Greece as a whole and every doubling of the rate costs the same points, so any two places compare directly. How the scores are made

What Kallipoli is actually like
The dense middle of the peninsula, bounded by Sachtouri, G. Theotoki, Klisovis/Karpathou and St. Dragoumi, touching Chatzikyriakeio, Ydraiika, Peiraiki and Freattyda. Settled first by islanders from Hydra and the Dodecanese, then after 1922 by refugees from Gallipoli in Eastern Thrace, who gave it its name and built the Agia Paraskevi church. Three squares anchor it: Serfiotou, Pigada and the large, family-heavy Karpathou. Its own weekly street market (laiki) is on Saturdays on Marias Chatzikyriakou street, just beyond its edge, and Pigada's Tuesday market sets up on Georgiou Theotoki, its boundary street; both run 07:30-15:30.
After dark
Apartment-block streets with people on balconies and small local bars; the squares stay in use in summer. Nothing documented here in 2024-26 and no police or press attention in the period searched.
Staying here
Good value and very local, about 15-20 minutes' walk to the terminals, but with almost no visitor infrastructure and few late taxis on the smaller streets. Workable for an early ferry if you travel light and book a car ahead.
