Άνω Εύοσμος · district
Ano Evosmos scores 50 out of 100 for violent crime — average crime, on a scale where 50 is the average for Greece. It is home to about 16,108 people at 7,743 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.
The upper part of Evosmos, on the higher ground towards and beyond the ring road. This is the zone the Hellenic Police keep returning to: successive operations in 2025 and 2026 were described as taking place in the area above the Kordelio-Evosmos peripheral road, with large numbers of people and vehicles stopped. In August 2026 one such sweep checked 164 people and 116 vehicles in a morning. The pattern is visible-presence policing and traffic enforcement rather than raids on a crime hotspot.
Newer, sparser and less overlooked than the lower district, with long stretches of road and thinner lighting. The repeated police presence is the clearest signal that this is the part of the municipality authorities watch most closely.
No. There is no visitor infrastructure and nothing to walk to.
