Yep, it's EastEnders' Albert Square.
According to security system company ADT, those living in the square are in the most danger, and are far more likely to be victims of crime over those living in other fictional soap locations.
EastEnders residents suffer up to 10 times more break ins and fires than their counterparts living in Ambridge, the setting of BBC Radio 4 drama The Archers.
Ambridge was found to be the least dangerous place to live, according to the experts.
The company also found that if the folks on EastEnders wanted to stay out of danger, the one place they had to avoid was the Queen Vic.
Over the past decade, the iconic pub has suffered two fires and nine break ins - more than any other Soapland pub the company examined.
Research also showed that Albert Square had a disproportionate amount of crime and dangerous activity compared to what is experienced in real life London.
Coming in close second was Hollyoaks, with the village apparently dealing with five crimes for every 100 people.
Coronation Street's stats surprised us all, with only 2.8 crimes being committed per every 100 people. This number is actually lower than one Manchester city's true rate, which is 4.2 per 100.
The security company said that a lot of the crimes in Soapland could easily be avoided if residents simply locked their doors.‘It is not the time to sit on the fence’ – CMAT praised for Ivor Novello Award speech
