I see a lot of people talking about the murder rate being low. I actually live in France and the translations are wrong , "20 deaths a year" isnt what the guy was saying , he was talking about how there are shootings occuring everywhere in Marseille. As a matter of fact , Marseille had 25 murders from June to September 2021 according to official figures so theres no way Marseille only has 25 homicides in a year. Bear in mind The city of Marseille's population is only 878,320 inhabitants, so the murder rate is quite high for a European city

It's not so much the numbers of the death, it is the brutality of them which has only worsen over the last couple of years (kidnappers filming the victims being tortured for example). Plus Marseille enjoys a prime location for drug trafficking being on the coast. Today, French police are scared to get in these "cités" (building blocks) because they might not get out alive.
A really amazing French film you might want to watch to understand the situation there is "Bac Nord". Came out last year, can't recommend it enough :)

here in Recife-Brazil only on february of this year we had 260 murders. Oh God, I wish that my hometown was this dangerous as Marseille. Being brutally honest, putting the reality where I live in perspective Marseille sounds to me like a very safe city. Don´t get me wrong I would love that Recife had this numbers.

Main difference between america and Marseilles (and all the dangerous cities in France/Europe) is that in Marseilles it is mostly about criminal organisations figthing each other for the business, it's well organized and ppl don't want to be arrested for dumb reasons. In America you can get shot anywhere by a crackhead that is ready to kill just to get enough money for his daily crack.
So in Marseilles, if you stay away from criminal organization or the dangerous parts of the city you will be fine overall, in America you can get killed anywhere
And I find weird that some americans in the comment almost act like they are "proud" that their country is more dangerous

I've been living in Marseille for 10 years, it's the most beautiful city in the South of France, I've never seen or exposed to any kind of violence. This documentary makes it sound like living here is risk but it's not actually. Like in any country in the world if you are involved in any kind of bad activity you expose yourself to danger.
