Safety.

Deliberate damage and vandalism1117.4 per 1,000−32%
Fraud and payment card fraud1197.9 per 1,000+16%

These figures count offences recorded by the police and gendarmerie, not how safe a place feels, and not every offence is reported. Rates are per 1,000 residents (per 1,000 homes for burglaries): where many people visit but few live, as in town centres and shopping areas, they are naturally higher. Small counts are not published.
