Safety.

Offences recorded in 2025, with the rate per 1,000 residents and the change from 2024.

Indicator2025RateChange
Burglaries of homes124.8 per 1,000−33%
Thefts from people without violence61.3 per 1,000−60%
Armed robberies00.0 per 1,000–
Domestic physical violence71.5 per 1,000+40%
Deliberate damage and vandalism306.4 per 1,000+88%
Fraud and payment card fraud265.6 per 1,000+13%

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.
