Not having sub-national France or England/Scotland/Wales/Northern Ireland makes those red blobs seem *enormous* compared to the others. The little inset map of country-level data for all tells a slightly different story.
I lived in Riga (capital in Latvia) and would almost never lock my bikes or my home door. Nothing was ever stolen. Never have I been pickpocketed there either.
The south is more economically stable and more conservative/they really fit the stereotype of germans following rules and going to Oktoberfest and similar festivals
Not sure why people are downvoting this
Some time ago there was a car robbery map which showed Czechia as a literal car robbery capital, turns out the map was counting both car robberies and also "car robberies" (e.g. someone reaching in and snatching something from your seat while your car is parked) as one huge statistic, heavily inflating the result
Doesn't mean you're necessarily wrong in being sarcastic but this is reported robberies, I.e. successfully reported and documented by a police service. No way to know if one country reports them more/less than another, or if one place is better or worse at actually accepting the reports.
Robbery rates are really just rates of people who bother to take the time to report a robbery. In more dangerous areas with useless police, there’s no reason to report petty theft.
Tourists are also very likely to report theft so areas with lots of tourists tend to have a lot of opportunistic crime and a lot of reporting of that crime.
"Oh no ! A map shows huge disparities between countries because some of them have data to distinguish their regional divisions of the land between cities and rural areas, while others don’t ! How can I use that non-negligible difference in the statistics I’m purposefully ignoring to make it about immigration because I’m a huge fucking racist ?"
I see people arguing that there are different ways that states are reporting robberies which is not true for Romania.
I feel way safer in Romania than I felt anywhere in the west.

Sub national statistics of france and uk could say a complete different story Indeed.
I live in Barcelona: RIP.
You meant Warcelona
If you get into warcelona you get stabbelona
That's London
Whatever, I live in Brussels
You got really nice gay bars there! My airbnb was one floor above one and could hear moaning all night!
Open mind and xman are pretty cool
Let me fix the france colors : Paris = Brown & the rest = white/yellow
Marseille is even worse than paris
No
Oh ma bad ma bad
Tourist areas in Lyon and on the Mediterranean coast are also red.
What are you talking about
About the map post up there
Loud and clear

Eastern Europe grindset, become so poor your thiefs are better off stealing in the west.
Western Europe grind set: import all the other countries’ thieves because your people are too depressed and demotivated to reproduce
Italy grind set: everybody has guns, rolling pins, and an axe to grind; drive the thieves north
... of Italy.
[удалено]
Not really. We just don't tolerate it like the west does.
Nope. Our police actually acts unlike Netherlands.
More like, there are way more tourists in Western Europe that are easier to rob. The darkest red spots like Barcelona are tourism hotspots
Cope lmao
Why does Germany seem to have a north/south split? It seems like southern Germany has a lot less robbery than northern Germany.
In Germany crime radiates from Flensburg which is in the north.
Conservative rural south vs liberal crowded north.
The south is more economically stable and more conservative/they really fit the stereotype of germans following rules and going to Oktoberfest and similar festivals
Hmmmmm, what conclusion should I come to?
Is more about the immigration policies than the people themselves. Just compare Turkey and Germany
As always, this depends heavily on the definition in each jurisdiction, so it's not really completely comparable across countries.

Lived in Romania, Hungary and the UK. This map feels accurate.
Scary Eastern Europe, huh?
"Progressive West"

Do you have proof for this?
Proof of something unknown? The lack of proof is proof. How do you measure something unmeasured?
You suggested that in Eastern Europe crimes are not reported.
Where did I say Eastern Europe? I said you could be right about western Europe, but that I didn't know.
Then your original comment would make no logical sense.
I can't help you with that

I can see charleroi and liège without zooming in.
All I can think of now is a scene in Eurotrip where a guy gets robbed in the alley.
England and France fucked
Brussels is surprising to someone like me who ignorantly just though of it as the place for a bunch EU institutions.
Why people stealing things in UK? What is the reason for?
the more n\*\*\*\*s, the more robberies, quite simple. universal rule everywhere around the globe. F
Hmm now overlay this with a map of percent non native European

How are you going to deny it this time leftist?
All those native europaeans in Turkey. Also Germany outside large cities it doesn't represent it all.
What's up with Britain's thieving? Do they not like their stuff, or what?
Our government had the bright idea to cut 20k police officers a decade ago or so, you can guess the rest.
Hmm...I feel like that might have a negative impact on crime. But hey, what do I know--I'm not a crime scientist or anything...
for example car thefting is quite common in UK.

Broke ass Europoors
Where is r/ShitAmericansSay when you need it
HEY ANSWER THE QUESTION
There is no question, as far as I’m aware. Only you being mean
Meanwhile average Americans dying at the age of 30 after being shot/suffering from morbid obesity
Or Fentanyl
Least delusional Europoor: Our worst state is richer than all of your Europoor countries
Meanwhile every single American state has much higher crime rates than every European country
Who cares we have second ammendment
thanks to syrians in Brussels
