In detail

Torre Angela is a large public-housing district near Tor Bella Monaca, and it has a substantial documented history of organised drug trafficking and localized violence. In October 2024 police carried out a major operation dismantling a drug-dealing operation there and arresting members of the Casamonica and Spada clans, well-known Roman crime families. In March 2025, a 21-year-old was stabbed in the stomach during a street brawl involving five people. Local reporting has also covered an illegal toxic-waste dumping operation and repeated complaints that the metro station underpass is unsafe, with residents requesting CCTV. This is one of the most consistently documented problem zones in Municipio VI, warranting a red night rating; daytime activity is calmer but the clan presence and degrado justify some caution.

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.

Is there official crime data for Torre Angela?

Not an official government crime feed — Torre Angela'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 Torre Angela well, you can suggest a correction using the link below.
