Μίκρα · district
Mikra scores 59 out of 100 for violent crime — average crime, on a scale where 50 is the average for Greece. It is home to about 8,251 people at 12,861 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.
Kalamaria's southeastern edge, towards the old Mikra airfield land, and now the terminus of the metro extension - the Mikra station opened with the 2025 Kalamaria line and is the interchange point for the park-and-ride traffic coming in from the southeast. The area is a mix of newer residential blocks, sports and institutional land rather than a traditional refugee quarter core, though Mikra is listed among Kalamaria's historic settlement names. No crime reporting specific to Mikra was found for 2024-2026.
Thin on street life after dark - wide roads, car-oriented, few pedestrians. That makes it feel deserted rather than dangerous. No documented night-time incidents.
Only if the metro terminus and easy parking matter more to you than atmosphere. The centre and seafront are better bases.
