I'm in the World's Safest Country — And It's Not Switzerland

England and Wales recorded 53,000 knife offences in the 12 months to March 2025—half of which were in London. In Singapore, that number is essentially zero. I grew up in London. I’ve had someone try to smash a bottle over my head and my car broken into. Most Westerners pay a massive "Safe Neighborhood Premium" for areas that are statistically more dangerous than a "rough" part of Singapore or the UAE. At Rumavi, we call this Safety Arbitrage. The Data Doesn't Lie: The top 15 safest countries—UAE (#1), Singapore (#11), Japan (#12), China (#13), and Saudi Arabia (#15)—are almost exclusively in Asia and the Middle East. Meanwhile, the UK, Germany, Italy, and Sweden sit in the 80s. The UK ranks 89th out of 162, behind Thailand, Indonesia, and the Philippines. Why This Matters for Your Capital: Crime is a policy choice, not an inevitable consequence of urbanization. We are seeing a global shift toward Governance as a Service (GaaS). Investors and families are moving toward jurisdictions that have "chosen" safety as a non-negotiable fundamental. The Honest Trade-Off: I advise my clients on the uncomfortable truth: there is often a trade-off between absolute political freedom and absolute personal safety. Some call it "strict," others call it "civilized." Understanding where you sit on that spectrum is the first step in any relocation strategy. How I Advise Clients on Safety by Market: For uncompromising safety — UAE, Singapore and most of the Gulf offer the highest security environments in the world. For those who want Southeast Asia's energy with strong safety — Vietnam, Thailand, Malaysia, and Indonesia are all relatively low-risk for expats; you need basic street smarts, not constant vigilance. The genuine risk areas to approach carefully: Myanmar (active conflict), Cambodia (corruption and scam infrastructure). If someone you know still thinks Asia is "risky" while Europe is the "safe" option, send them this data. I'm Alexander Linton, founder of Rumavi.
