Safety and crime in Kuressaare
Kuressaare sits on Saaremaa, and the West-Estonian islands are consistently the lowest-crime part of the country. Estonia publishes no standalone town rate, so the figure below is the national picture, with the islands running below it.
- Reported offences per 10,000 residents201Ministry of Justice (Kuritegevus Eestis), national figure (201 per 10,000); the islands run below the national rate, 2023
Island crime is low and dominated by minor property offences; nothing is published below county level, and Saare county's exact rate appears only as a chart.
Estonia records crime through the Police and Border Guard and the Ministry of Justice, and publishes it nationally and by county, never by neighborhood, so one figure applies across a town's areas. Reporting is reasonably high, but a share of thefts and assaults still go unrecorded, so treat these counts as a floor rather than a danger signal.
Estonia's crime statistics come from the Ministry of Justice annual overview, Kuritegevus Eestis, built on Police and Border Guard records. Figures are national or by county, with no breakdown below county level.
