Paris is the crime capital of Europe.

The city with the highest crime index in Western Europe is Marseilles (67,03) second highest is Bimingham (63,96)

Those would be the 8th and 13th place in the US. So you’d have to go through:

• Memphis (77,85)
• Detroit (72,82)
• Baltimore (71,11)
• Albuquerque (70,90)
• Saint Louis (70,12)
• Oakland (68,60) and
• New Orleans (67,92)

Before you arrive at Marseilles. Paris is at 57,88, that would be the 17th place in the US.

At the same time the kind of crimes that are unusually high in Marseilles and Paris are pickpocketing and petty theft.
