Μέγας Αλέξανδρος · district
Megas Alexandros 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 168 people at 4,111 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.
This name does not appear in the official subdivision lists for any of the three Pavlos Melas municipal units in the sources consulted. In local use it refers to the area around the Megas Alexandros avenue and its surrounding blocks - a street-derived neighbourhood label rather than a recognised administrative district, of the kind common across western Thessaloniki. That matters for a safety guide: there is no boundary, no population figure, no municipal page and no crime reporting attached to it, and nothing found in 2024-2026 sources names it.
No documented night-time pattern specific to this name. The surrounding Pavlos Melas picture applies: quiet residential streets, with overnight shopfront break-ins the recorded concern.
No. Not a defined area, and nothing for visitors.
Reputation against reality. Listed here because the name circulates locally, not because a source defines it. It should not be presented as an established neighbourhood with its own safety profile.
