Here are the new “drug addict centres” of Budapest – 18+

Based on a new report, mostly homeless drug addicts from Hős Street in Budapest’s 8th district moved to other parts of the capital.

The local government “cleared” the Hős Street and its neighbourhood from drug addicts, but they did not disappear from Budapest. Based on a new report of the Drug Research Institute (Drogkutató Intézet), one of the new places drug addicts conquered is the area between the Móricz Zsigmond körtér and Lake Feneketlen in Budapest’s 11th district. Magyar Nemzet wrote that drug addicts here consume cheap, harmful and uncontrolled designer drugs.

Aggressive drug addicts rampage in Budapest

People on drugs are sometimes aggressive. They abused pedestrians and knocked down a man recently. A father said he would not like to explain to his son why somebody stuck a syringe into his arm but highlighted that the situation worsened in the area in the last two years.

Another drug addict centre is the H9 suburban railway, commuting between Budapest and Gödöllő. Big groups travel to Kerepes to meet their dealers and get high on the trains or at Boráros Square. Then, they leave the used syringes around. Sometimes suburban HÉV trains are full of addicts, who even cover the trains with faeces.
