Safety
Crime per resident in Allassac runs lower than in 95% of compared French towns
Allassac ranks first of the 11 compared towns in Corrèze on the Safety Grade. Police and gendarmerie recorded 44 offenses in the graded categories in Allassac in 2025. For other physical violence, sexual violence, burglary, vehicle theft and theft from vehicles, this figure isn’t published when it’s small (five or fewer in at least one of the last three years); the index uses the département’s average instead, 13.4% of the index here. Because that share is over 10%, this Safety Grade is less sure than most.
