How safe is Heraklion Regional Unit?
Kimya
I haven't witnessed crime in the regions I lived in. One personal experience I have of being drugged by a "friend" (male, obviously) but tge situation was resolved peacefully. Here the police might be more dangerous than the people. Predatory looks are common, but I rarely get approached and feel threatened.
