Ηλιούπολη · district
Ilioupoli scores 45 out of 100 for property crime — average crime, on a scale where 50 is the average for Greece. It is home to about 8,100 people at 4,111 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.
A 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.
The documented overnight issue is break-ins at shopfronts rather than street crime. Residential blocks are quiet; commercial frontages are the exposed thing once shutters are down.
No reason to - purely residential, nothing for visitors, slow connections to the centre.
