The safety picture

A plain-language read of the sourced figures below

Turin scores 86 out of 100, safer than around 57% of the cities we rank.

The homicide rate is very low at 0.5 per 100,000, below the median for the cities we track, though it covers the wider metro area and we derived it from a count and a population. Robbery is higher at 80.1 per 100,000, a metro figure drawn from police reports that count only what people report. The four governments split on how cautious to be: the UK and Australia keep Italy at their lowest advisory level, while the US and Canada raise it a step to increased caution. Advisories flag pickpocketing and scams for travellers. In a city-level survey, 47.8% of residents said they feel safe walking alone at night, a more guarded reading than the crime figures alone suggest.

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.
