The increased perception of insecurity outside the home has a tremendous impact on Italians' lives. According to the first Univ-Censis Report "Safety outside the home", 94.2% of respondents want to feel safe while away from home, and 89.3% want to be protected from crime, in a society marked by crises and uncertainty. 75.8% perceive that the roads have become more dangerous in the last five years, a figure that jumps to 81.8% among women, whose fear reveals itself particularly in the late hours: 67.3% say they are afraid to return home alone at night. Nearly four in ten Italians (38.1%) have avoided going out due to fear of being assaulted, a percentage that exceeds 50% among young people. The findings show women's increased vulnerability, since they are the primary victims of escalating crimes such as sexual harassment (reported by 25.6% of respondents), pickpocketing (23.1%), and stalking (29.5%). In 2024, 2,388,716 crimes were reported, up 3.8% from 2019. Robberies on public roadways increased 24.1%, pickpocketing by 2.6%, and muggings by 7.9%. Rome has the highest number of crimes (271,033), followed by Milan (226,230) and Naples (132,809). However, the Lombard capital has the highest crime rate per 1,000 inhabitants, with 69.7, followed by Florence (65.3) and Rome (64.1). Monza Brianza saw the steepest year-over-year increase: +12.4%. What is concerning in Rome is the increase in street robberies (+51.3%) and pickpocketing (+68%) in comparison to 2019.
