Villa Ada is a large, partly wooded public park popular for walking, jogging and open-air events, with less lighting and fewer people in its more remote sections than Villa Borghese. Local press over the years has reported occasional assaults in isolated parts of the park, though the specific incidents found in searches are old or undated rather than from 2025-2026, and no current, well-sourced pattern of crime was found. As with most large, semi-wooded Roman parks, some caution in unlit or secluded areas at night is reasonable, but nothing recent or systemic is documented.

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.
Frequently asked questions

Wandroz currently rates Villa Ada 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 Villa Ada safe at night?
At night, Villa Ada 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 Villa Ada a good area to stay in as a tourist?
Villa Ada'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 Villa Ada itself.
Is there official crime data for Villa Ada?
Not an official government crime feed — Villa Ada'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 Villa Ada well, you can suggest a correction using the link below.
