Territorial comparison

Rankings

See also the municipalities table →

Ranking of municipalities by a main category of the BIPOL bulletin and a published year. Figures come from the main annual series published by the federal police, with no composite index and no invented figure.

Measure

(offences ÷ population on 1 January 2025) × 1,000 · Statbel population. Places without a population for that year are excluded from the rate ranking.

Raw counts mostly reflect population size, so the rate per 1,000 inhabitants is shown by default. Tourist, commercial or city-centre municipalities (for example Brussels city or the coast) can have high rates, because many offences involve people who do not live there (visitors, commuters). The rate is computed on the resident population only.

Order

151 municipalities with 20 000 inhab. or more (default threshold, see the note below the table) · Nombre total des délits · 2025 · rate per 1,000 inhab. · les plus élevés d’abord

Rate = offences recorded by the police (BIPOL annual series) ÷ population on 1 January 2025 (Statbel) × 1,000. No composite score: the ranking is based only on the official value chosen. By default, only municipalities with at least 20 000 inhabitants are ranked: below that, a few offences are enough to make the rate per 1,000 jump and the smallest municipalities would dominate the ranking. The « All » option (shareable link ?seuil=0) shows everything; a municipality with no known population is left out of the thresholds, without estimation. The mayor's political affiliation (party or list, with a colour dot) is shown for information only, with no causal link to the figures; local lists without a sourced national party in grey, « - » when no source is available.

Reading notes

  • Counts are taken as is from the main annual series, with no composite index.
  • Tessenderlo-Ham est exclu des classements principaux (série BIPOL pluriannuelle encore masquée ; fusion 1/1/2025).
  • 2025 is provisional: first publication (closed 24/04/2026). Reports registered late are added in later bulletins, which revise the figures upwards. Comparing 2025 with the already revised 2024 may therefore overstate the fall (see Methodology).
  • 66 municipalities missing from the Q4 2025 bulletin (63 in Flemish Brabant, Oud-Turnhout, Pont-à-Celles, Meix-devant-Virton) come from archived BIPOL bulletins (Wayback Machine): complete years up to 2024 (2022 for Pont-à-Celles, 2023 for Meix-devant-Virton), earlier closing date, so unrevised figures slightly lower than they would be in the reference bulletin. No 2025 for these municipalities.
  • Zones de police et arrondissements : pas de classement ici (pas de population Statbel rattachée pour les taux ; classements limités aux communes et provinces).
