Perceived safety (Security Monitor survey)

Survey data, not recorded offences

Answers from a sample of residents aged 15 and over (Federal Police, Security Monitor). They measure perception and self-reported victimisation, with a margin of error, and are not comparable with the BIPOL figures on this page. No score or ranking. Only zones and municipalities registered for the survey have local results. Methodology

Change 2025/2024: change in 2025 compared with 2024 (e.g. −10 % = 2025 is 10 % lower than 2024, not the reverse).

2025 provisional: first publication. Reports registered late are added in later bulletins, which revise the figures upwards, so the 2025/2024 fall may be overstated.
