Rome has plentiful prostitutes of all price ranges. Unlike, other European countries street walkers are the most popular.
While proportionally the more expensive escorts and in-house sex workers are in steady decline number wise. However the presence of large numbers of street prostitutes in suburban areas, has caused protests from Romans living there. Rome's top security official suggested the city needs a Red-light district to keep prostitutes off the residential streets, because there has been so many complaints about prostitutes working the streets of the Italian capital.
The large presence of street walkers compared to indoor sex workers, is the most distinctive feature of Italy 's sex industry compared to other European countries.
