Agiou Pavlou violent crime

Αγίου Παύλου · district

33/100

Agiou Pavlou scores 33 out of 100 for violent crimeabove-average crime, on a scale where 50 is the average for Greece. It is home to about 6,852 people at 6,745 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.

What Agiou Pavlou is actually like

Ordinary city precautionsNo specific problem on record beyond what any dense city centre has.

The eastern unit of the municipality, on the slope above the centre, merged into Neapoli-Sykies in 2011. It is residential, elevated and quieter than Neapoli or Sykies, with the municipality's summer cultural programme opening here each June. Coverage specific to Agiou Pavlou is thin. The one incident found is an arson-type attack with a gas canister on the citizens' service centre (KEP) in Agios Pavlos in the early hours - property damage to a public building, with police and fire service attending.

After dark

Quiet and residential, with steep streets and limited late transport. No documented pattern of street crime; the recorded incident targeted a municipal building overnight, not people.

What to watch for

  • Limited late-night transport up the slope
  • Overnight attacks on property rather than people

Staying here

Not a visitor base - residential, hilly and awkward for getting to the sights.
