The safety picture

A plain-language read of the sourced figures below

Granada scores 87 out of 100 in our index, safer than roughly 59% of the cities we score.

Its homicide rate is 1 per 100,000, below the median for tracked cities, but that figure covers the wider region and we derived it from a count and a population, so it is not specific to the city. Recorded robbery is 70.6 per 100,000, again a regional rate we calculated ourselves. On advisories, the US and Canada set Spain at their second level, increased caution, while the UK and Australia keep it at their lowest, a modest disagreement over framing. Advisories for the country flag pickpocketing and scams aimed at visitors. We hold no resident survey on feeling safe at night for Granada.

The radar shows the three sourced, comparable risk measures (homicide, robbery, the strictest travel-advisory level). Tourist petty-crime signals are a different kind of measure — how often advisories mention them — so they are shown as rows under Tourist-specific incidents, not as radar axes.
