Quick answer

What does City hubs with the lowest published recorded-crime rate show?

杉並区, Japan has the lowest recorded incidents per 100,000 residents of the 30 cities compared: 441.3 incidents per 100,000 (Criminal offences known to the police by town, crime type and method (Reiwa 7 / 2025), 2025-12-31).

How this list is built

Every row is a published recorded incidents per 100,000 residents observation, ranked lowest first. The values were observed between 2019 and 2025. A place appears only when it publishes this exact metric, so an absent place means missing data rather than a low value. Only published cities with at least 20,000 residents and city-level observations qualify.

  • Compare the displayed value, unit, source date and geographic grain together.
  • A city label does not change a regional observation into a city measurement.
