Is there a lot of crime in Thessaloniki?

Answer this Question

We asked people if there is a lot of crime. They answered...

"Thessaloniki, generally has a lower crime rate compared to other major cities worldwide. However, like any other city, it does experience some level of crime. The most common types of crime reported are petty thefts, pickpocketing, and bag snatching, particularly in crowded areas and tourist hotspots. Violent crimes such as assault and armed robbery are relatively rare, but they do occur occasionally. There have also been reports of scams and fraud, particularly targeting tourists. Despite these issues, Thessaloniki is considered safe for residents and visitors, provided they take standard precautions to protect their personal safety and belongings," explained one expat living in Thessaloniki, Greece.
