Samarkand

Samarkand scores 91 out of 100, placing it safer than about 66% of the cities we rank.

The homicide figure is 0.8 per 100,000, roughly half the median, but a few caveats apply: it covers a wider state-level area, we derived the rate from a count and a population, and the underlying definition does not match our standard exactly. Take it as a rough upper bound. We have no vetted robbery rate for the city. The governments we track split slightly on Uzbekistan. The US, Canada, and the UK keep it at their lowest advisory level, while Australia raises it one step to increased caution. Each advisory that covers the country flags pickpocketing and scams for travellers. We hold no resident-perception survey for Samarkand, and with three of five incidence categories covered, this profile is still partial.
