A citizen petition on the city's participation platform is titled explicitly about insecurity in this barrio. Separately, a 2020 report described residents 'fed up' with insecurity generated by an illegal after-hours venue on a nearby street. Together these amount to documented resident-level concern about night-time disorder rather than confirmed serious violent crime.

Search accommodation here on Booking.com →
Booking.com has no search area for this neighbourhood, so this link searches the district it sits in — narrower than the whole city, wider than this neighbourhood alone.
This rating comes from a structured local-source assessment. This specific area was reviewed against credible local sources — local and national news, municipal and police-published material, and official surveys where they exist — and the signals were consolidated across sources rather than taken from any single report, with the reasoning and the sources shown above. Madrid publishes no comparable neighbourhood-level crime dataset; where a city does publish one, Wandroz uses it instead of an assessment. Where a review finds nothing documented, that is recorded as no findings rather than as a safety rating.
Frequently asked questions
Is San Juan Bautista safe?
Wandroz currently rates San Juan Bautista in Madrid as an area where the review found nothing traveller-relevant to report during the day and roughly average compared to other neighbourhoods in Madrid at night. This comes from a structured local-source assessment: an area-level review of credible local sources — local and national news, municipal and police-published material, and official surveys where they exist — consolidated across sources rather than taken from a single report. Madrid publishes no comparable neighbourhood-level crime dataset; where a city does, Wandroz uses it instead.
Is San Juan Bautista safe at night?
At night, San Juan Bautista is rated as roughly average compared to other neighbourhoods in Madrid. If you're unsure, it's worth checking recent local reviews for your specific street or block, since a neighbourhood-wide rating can't capture block-by-block variation.
Is San Juan Bautista a good area to stay in as a tourist?
San Juan Bautista's day rating (an area where the review found nothing traveller-relevant to report) is the more relevant one for typical daytime tourist activity; check the night rating too if you'll be out late. Note that the Booking.com link on this page searches Ciudad Lineal, not San Juan Bautista specifically: Booking does not list this neighbourhood as a destination of its own, so check each property's address against the map above.
Is there official crime data for San Juan Bautista?
Not an official government crime feed — San Juan Bautista's rating comes from Wandroz's own current local/national press and survey research for this specific area instead (see the note on this page for what was checked and the sources used). An absence of recent negative coverage is treated as inconclusive, not as proof the area is safe. If you live in or know San Juan Bautista well, you can suggest a correction using the link below.
