These are the most crime-ridden parts of Hungary
Based on recent crime statistics, Budapest is the most crime-ridden city of Hungary. Accordingly, the highest number of crimes per 100,000 inhabitants were registered in the Hungarian capital in the first half of 2020.
As the Hungarian news portal Pénzcentrum reports, the number of burglary thefts decreased significantly in the first half of the year, which was obviously due to curfew restrictions. Based on the data of police.hu, criminal activities were listed in the following categories: crime committed in a public place, violence against a person, theft, car theft, car hacking, burglary, vandalism, robbery, riot, property violation.
According to the freshly published statistics, the most crime-ridden city of Hungary is Budapest, where the largest number of crimes per 100,000 inhabitants were realised in the first half of 2020; numerically: 813.
The Hungarian capital is followed by Borsod-Abaúj-Zemplén county, where 735 cases were registered in the given period. Tolna County occupied the third step of the podium with 647 crimes per 100,000 inhabitants; by which it overtook the notorious Nógrád County with 633 crimes registered this year.
The list ends with those Hungarian counties where the number of crimes was below 600; namely, Somogy, Szabolcs-Szatmár-Bereg, Bács-Kiskun, Heves, Baranya and Győr-Moson-Sopron counties. At the bottom of the list, we can find Csongrád-Csanád and Hajdú-Bihar counties with 362 and 300 registered crimes.
Besides the most dangerous parts of the country, the safest place in Hungary has also been revealed РHajd̼-Bihar county Рwhere the number of crimes was almost one-third compared to the capital.
