Crime in Valencia, Spain

Answer to Alex.
It's true that the city is getting more dangerous every year but it's mostly because of gang on gang related violence and not so much on regular civilians, and also most of the criminals from the 2021 migrant crisis in Valencia are Algerian not Moroccan which gets people confused, we also have lots of criminals from South America mostly Colombians and Venezuelans and also lots of Romanians which should all get deported but still 77% of the crimes in 2023 we're commited by Spanish civilians (which some of them are not natural Spanish) but still almost all violent crimes I have seen in the last years we're young Spanish because of gang violence.

I say this not because I'm the stereotypical woman that defends migrants at all coast, like I said all foreign criminals should be deported, I say this because A LOT of young Spanish including middle class ones are getting in this Gang Culture mentality everyday because of lots of factors including Music that promotes and glamorizes this Narco culture and tracks uneducated kids just like in USA, which is even worse than foreigners commiting most of the crimes like in Barcelona because the Spanish criminals can't get deported and this problem will still be a problem for the next years if education doesn't improve regardless of the economical situation of the city.

Crime perception has increased a lot because of the terrible violence of some new street gangs but still is a safe city since they don't target civilians not even tourists, if you mind your business and you don't get into messy stuff like drug dealing you will be more than fine, it's not like UK or France where you're constantly scared of random crime like getting stabbed for no reason

Whoever is in charge of this has to update the situation of the city because homicides (90% gang violence) and car theft is increasing fast. Valencia is not anymore what it used to be 5-10 years ago so I don't know what Pol is talking about the city being "very chill" when soon it will be the most criminal city in the country because crime here is already way more deep than illegal immigration or crackheads harrassing tourists like Barcelona. I don't want to give this city a bad image but this is the reality and it's not changing to better...

The only dangerous neighbourhoods in Valencia is Malvarrosa because of local and romanian family clans shootings and kidnaps, the rest of the city is very chill and the worst thing that can happen is pickpocketing and is not even that common

much better than Barcelona ;)

Of all the cities I've been to in Spain, Valencia is definetely the safest and cleanest one

As someone who has been mugged 3 times this year (June 2022) makes me feel that this is fake, Valencia is no near as safe like Numbeo says, and if this is true i don't wanna know nothing about Barcelona or other cities
