Αργυράς · district
Argyras scores 46 out of 100 for violent crime — average crime, on a scale where 50 is the average for Greece. It is home to about 288 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.
A mountain community of the Rio municipal unit on the Panachaiko slopes above the gulf. A small upland village of stone houses, springs and plane trees with a mainly older resident population and weekenders from Patras. No institutions, no visitor infrastructure beyond a taverna or two, and no incident reporting in the 2024-2026 record.
Silent and very dark, with no street lighting away from the core and no through traffic. Nothing documented.
A rural mountain stay, car essential. No use for an early Italy ferry — allow an hour to the South Port.
