The safest city in the world is in Japan.
This is the result that The Economist Intelligence Unit has reached again, the index of the safest cities in the world in 2017. For the second time the Japanese city was at the top of the ranking; Well, it already was in 2015.
A report on 60 cities in 49 indicators that cover digital security, health security, infrastructure security and personal security. In other words, security not only understood as walking down the street and feeling safe, but also feeling safe when you make an online transfer, or when you take a bus to go to work.
Climate change is one of the few threats to Tokyo.
In a world that is increasingly populated and concentrated in large cities, it is difficult to guarantee one hundred percent security. "While cities generate economic activity, the security challenges they face expand and intensify as their population increases," specifies the report of The Economist.
Tokyo with more than 9.3 million inhabitants It is the safest city at all levels. It has a low crime rate, since there are no terrorist attacks; although in matters of personal security it is in fourth place. Perhaps the worst thing about Tokyo is its infrastructure, possibly due to the danger of natural disasters.
Tokyo's infrastructure security falls to 12th place.
