The reference is the median of the 32 cities published here, not a European average. Eurostat's EU aggregates are not collected yet, and deriving one from these cities would invent a figure no source publishes.

Ordered best first

This measure has stated that a lower value is better for a household choosing where to settle, so the order and the colour follow from it. Cities with the same value share a rank. This orders one measure; it is not a ranking of cities.

Every value is published at the same geographic level: NUTS 3. Periods 2022 to 2024. Confidence A throughout.

Each bar grows from the median towards the side its value falls on. The two halves are scaled independently, so the lowest and highest values reach their ends even when the spread is uneven: a bar's length is comparable with others on the same side of the median, not across it.

4 cities are not in this comparison

Named rather than dropped. A rank out of 32 is only readable when the cities missing from it account for themselves.

How this measure is built

Definition
Police-recorded intentional homicides per 100,000 inhabitants, for the region containing the city.
Position
The median, the gap and the rank are arithmetic over the values in this table and can be recomputed from it. They are not a score, carry no weighting, and combine with nothing else on the site.Read the method
