For Germany, it's Berlin-Neukölln. However, there's less of a "this is a dangerous no-go area", and more of a focus on supposedly super-strong arabic "clan" families, which are known as dangerous criminal organizations and there are consistent raids against in all of the country.
Who cares that the N'drangheta (calabrian mafia) has been way more successful in weaving itself into the German Economy, it's a good occasion to scaremonger among BILD (right wing tabloid) readership.
Well that's the thing, German conservatives see somebody doing a giant money laundering operation and will immediately feel a deep kinship to them. Bourgeois politicians are obviously always close to white collar crime, but the CDU/CSU just loves that shit, it's their biggest passion.
