The safety picture

A plain-language read of the sourced figures below

Our data on Podgorica is limited to two of five incidence categories, so treat the profile as provisional.

We hold no vetted homicide or robbery rate for the city, and without those inputs there is no composite score to report. What is consistent is the official guidance: all four governments we track keep Montenegro at their lowest advisory level, normal precautions, with no disagreement. Their advisories for the country do note pickpocketing and scams that can affect visitors. We have no resident survey on how safe people feel walking alone at night, so that reading is absent here.
