Berlin

Berlin scores 78 out of 100, safer than about 42% of the cities we rank.

Its homicide rate is 1.4 per 100,000, close to the median for the cities we track, though the underlying definition differs from what some other cities report, so direct comparison needs care. Robbery is 135.4 per 100,000, a police-recorded figure that counts only reported incidents and so sits below the true level. The governments split on framing: the US and Canada set Germany at their second advisory level, increased caution, while the UK and Australia keep it at their lowest. All four flag pickpocketing and scams for visitors. In a city-level survey, 58.8% of residents said they feel safe walking alone at night, which sits somewhat below the city's mid-range crime figures.
