Ano Evosmos scores 51 out of 100 (modelled estimate, Eurostat 2021–2024) for violent crime — average crime, on a scale where 50 is the average for Greece. Ano Evosmos has no police figures of its own. Its estimate is Kordelio-Evosmos's rate — Kordelio-Evosmos scores 46 for violent crime — and the 5 points between them come from how the model shares Kordelio-Evosmos's total out, not from anything measured in Ano Evosmos. An estimated 16,108 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 Ano Evosmos is actually like
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.
After dark
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.
What to watch for
- The zone above the peripheral road, repeatedly targeted by police operations
- Thin lighting and few pedestrians on newer streets
- Vehicle-related offences and stops
