La Storta is a mixed residential and commercial district straddling via Cassia and a regional rail stop, at the northern edge of the municipio. It repeatedly features in Carabinieri anti-drug and anti-degrado sweeps together with Prima Porta and Labaro, including a large operation reported on 19 August 2026 involving cocaine, crack and hashish seizures across Rome's periphery including Cassia-La Storta, plus a 2026 case of a large-scale electricity-theft racket uncovered at a local bar. Police have also carried out checks against rowdy nightlife. Daytime around the shops and station is unremarkable; night sees recurring drug-related police activity.

Frequently asked questions
Is La Storta safe?
Wandroz currently rates La Storta 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 La Storta safe at night?
At night, La Storta 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 La Storta a good area to stay in as a tourist?
La Storta'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. The Booking.com link on this page searches La Storta itself.
Is there official crime data for La Storta?
Not an official government crime feed — La Storta'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 La Storta well, you can suggest a correction using the link below.
