Talking About Safety Rankings
When talking about safety you’re going to want to
focus on personal aspects, such as being able to walk down streets at night.
The survey also takes crime levels into account and the performance of the
police departments in the area. Another important aspect that they take into
consideration is the relationship between the countries and other countries.
Singapore was ranked first in all of Asia with Kobe, Osaka, Yokohama, Nagoya,
and Tokyo trailing behind. Bangkok received a rating of 173rd due to
the recent terrorist attacks and political issues that the area has
experienced.
Considering Quality of Living
The standards that are set by the quality of living
rankings are dependent on the areas level of safety and other important factors
such as healthcare and developing issues. The cities at the bottom of the list
are war torn areas that have developing problems such as civil wars, political
unrest, and have dangerous places to live. A couple of these areas include:
Baghdad, Iraq, Bangul, Central African Republic, and Khartoum, Sudan.

At the top of the list is where you’ll find
primarily European areas such as Luxembourg, Helsinki, Bern, and Zurich. There
are several different cities that would have been ranked higher but had lost
their spot as a result of terrorist attacks such as Paris, Madrid, London, and
Athens now at 71st, 84th, 72nd, and 124th.
Though these rankings don’t influence whether they are some of the most popular
destinations to visit or not.

luxurious and high-end lifestyle as a resident of Singapore. It also gives
tourists the ability to know that they are surely booking the perfect vacation
