Feeling safe at night in Europe (2024)

This map, published by Adventourely in 2023, represents the feeling of insecurity experienced by European citizens when walking alone at night in their countries.

The methodology used by the authors focuses on the data provided by Numbeo, a website that collects data on crime and perceptions of insecurity. Based on the responses provided on the website by different people, the perception of insecurity at night in each country is determined.

According to this information, France, Belgium and Belarus are at the bottom of the list, while Croatia, Slovenia and Iceland are at the top.

It is important to understand that the data provided by Numbeo are responses from users who voluntarily choose to contribute information; it is not a statistical study that takes into account a realistic representation of the population of each country.
