In late July 2026, a knife attack injured three people at Porte de Clichy, within this quartier's official boundary, with a suspect arrested (CNews, franceinfo) — this reads as an isolated violent incident rather than a chronic pattern. Épinettes is otherwise a more modest, mixed residential quartier with no other significant documented safety issues found in current press, so ordinary night-time caution near Porte de Clichy is reasonable while daytime concern is low. Sources checked: CNews, 27 Jul 2026; franceinfo, Jul 2026.

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. Paris 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.
