A quiet, affluent residential quartier (Ranelagh, La Muette) with no notable street-crime pattern found. Like Auteuil, part of its boundary touches the Bois de Boulogne, where an official Paris city report and press coverage document ongoing nighttime street prostitution and related safety concerns; this is a Bois de Boulogne-wide, after-dark issue rather than something documented within Muette's residential streets themselves. Sources checked: Mairie de Paris / Conseil de Paris, security report on the Bois de Boulogne, presented ~November 2024; No incident specific to Muette's built-up residential streets found (search conducted August 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.

Is Muette (16e arr.) safe at night?
At night, Muette (16e arr.) is rated as roughly average compared to other neighbourhoods in Paris. 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 Muette (16e arr.) a good area to stay in as a tourist?
Muette (16e arr.)'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 16th arr., not Muette (16e arr.) 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 Muette (16e arr.)?
Not an official government crime feed — Muette (16e arr.)'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 Muette (16e arr.) well, you can suggest a correction using the link below.
