Scores per pillar

This is a true city centre, with everything that entails: amenities score 9.8, near the ceiling, but safety drops to 2.5. The 112 crimes per 1,000 people present owe much to the crowds that shops and cafés pull in — the figure is adjusted for exactly that. Living here is the exception: only 18 percent own, nearly two-thirds live alone, and barely one home in ten is a house. The average value is €246,000.
