‘New crime figures for Spain show the country to be one of the safest in Europe with 49.3 crimes per 1,000 inhabitants.
Secretary of State for Security, Antonio Camacho, said the number includes data from the National Police, Civil Guard, and regional police forces in the Basque Country and Cataluna, and results in a crime rate 20 points lower than the EU average.’
(If they took the bag thieves in Barcelona out of the equation it would be even lower, I’m sure).
