Casal Boccone is a small, largely residential enclave better known locally for a notoriously dangerous stretch of road than for street crime. However, in April 2025 police arrested a 26-year-old after finding 46 kg of drugs and roughly 265,000 euros in cash in a home there, a substantial and well-documented drug-trafficking bust. Day-to-day public safety reporting is otherwise limited to a resolved missing-person case and road-safety campaigns, with no reports of street violence.

This link is already scoped to this area (not the whole city), using the neighbourhood's real coordinates.
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. Rome 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.
