The safety picture
A plain-language read of the sourced figures belowHavana carries little hard data in our records.
We hold no vetted homicide or robbery rate, and with two of five incidence categories filled the profile is provisional, so there is no composite score. The advisories do most of the work and they diverge. The US keeps Cuba at its second level, increased caution, the least cautious of the four, while Canada, the UK, and Australia each raise it to their third level, reconsider travel. Every advisory that covers the country names pickpocketing and scams aimed at visitors. We hold no resident survey on feeling safe at night for Havana, so there is no perception figure to set against the guidance.
