Wow thanks for that! I couldn't find any regional data myself, but this looks promising. I'll have a further look into it and if it's useful I'll update the map and add the regional data for England and Wales.

France has one of the highest reported robbery rates in Europe and the UK and Wales the highest. These are also the only countries not reporting data at the regional/city level. I'd expect to still see several Spanish and Belgian cities at the top, but we'd definitely see some UK and French cities in the top 10 as well, if they had data at the regional level.

For France and the UK there is sadly no data available at the regional level, only at the country level. That's why I added the small map with the values at the country level. So it's easier to put the numbers for the UK and France in perspective.

I make a lot of maps of Europe and like many maps here, I get the data for most of my European maps from Eurostat, which is the statistical office of the EU.

All EU members have to share data with Eurostat. EFTA countries and candidate countries often times also share their data. Eurostat has a very large number of interesting datasets and for the vast majority of them, the methodology is harmonized acrros countries, making their datasets very reliable for comparing countries.

When there's data for EU countries only, I try to find data for the missing countries from their respective statistical offices. However, most of the time, they either have no data on that subject or the methodology is too different to make a reliable comparison.

There are of course other data sources that have data for more European countries than just the EU. But these usually only cover very specific topics or only have a small number of datasets, especially compared to the vast amount of interesting datasets that Eurostat has.

More or less all of the data comes from the Global Data Lab. Data for missing territories is from the United Nations (almost all of them are British, Dutch or French overseas territories). For Canada I used Statistics Canada, as Global Data Lab grouped Prince Edward Island, Yukon, Northwest Territories and Nunavut together as one area. 2021data wasn't available for all Canadian provinces and territories. For the provinces that did have 2021 data available, the biggest difference compared to 2020 would be a 0.8 increase.

In that case no. 9 would be Valencia, Spain (69,131) and no. 10 would be Bergen, Norway (67,070).
