"Cops descended on crime-ravaged Bahnhofsviertel district in Frankfurt," the Sun wrote in a caption on a photo. This chilling description encapsulates the dangerous reality many residents and visitors face in the area.
"My city is not a Zombieland," stated Mayor Mike Josef, countering negative portrayals of Frankfurt's Bahnhofsviertel while acknowledging its struggles. His comments reflect the city’s efforts to combat crime and improve safety.
In a recent survey published by Bild, 52 percent of respondents said train stations in Germany felt 'particularly unsafe.' This statistic underscores the pervasive anxiety surrounding safety in public transportation hubs.
Official statistics show the number of logged criminal offences rose in Frankfurt in 2023 by 5,922 to 114,969, emphasizing the area's serious crime problem and placing it atop Germany's crime rate.
