Casalotti (Casalotti di Boccea) is a residential, largely single-family-home suburb at Rome's western edge. It was the site of a serious documented crime: in mid-2026, wire reports described a triple homicide on via Montiglio, where a Bangladeshi family - father, mother and a 5-year-old daughter - were stabbed to death inside their home, with an 18-year-old son surviving; a suspect remained at large and under manhunt at the time of reporting, with a public memorial later held in the neighbourhood's Piazza Ormea. This was a targeted attack inside a private residence rather than a street-level pattern, and no other recurring crime or degrado issues were found for the area, but given the severity and recency it merits caution rather than a blanket no concerns rating, especially at night.

Frequently asked questions
Is Casalotti di Boccea safe?
Wandroz currently rates Casalotti di Boccea in Rome as an area where the review found nothing traveller-relevant to report during the day and roughly average compared to other neighbourhoods in Rome 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. Rome publishes no comparable neighbourhood-level crime dataset; where a city does, Wandroz uses it instead.
Is Casalotti di Boccea safe at night?
At night, Casalotti di Boccea is rated as roughly average compared to other neighbourhoods in Rome. 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 Casalotti di Boccea a good area to stay in as a tourist?
Casalotti di Boccea'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 Casalotti, not Casalotti di Boccea 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 Casalotti di Boccea?
Not an official government crime feed — Casalotti di Boccea'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 Casalotti di Boccea well, you can suggest a correction using the link below.
