To compile the "safety index by country for 2025," Numbeo analyzed 146 countries on the basis of overall crime levels.
Data was obtained from surveys filled out by visitors to their website.
Factors taken into account included how safe residents feel during the day and night, worry about mugging, robbery, car theft, and physical attacks by strangers, as well as harassment in public places and discrimination based on skin color, ethnicity, gender, or religion.
