In Europe, the Baltic countries of Latvia and Lithuania had the highest and third highest homicide rates respectively in 2022. Latvia had the highest rate at over four per 100,000 inhabitants. Meanwhile, the lowest homicide rate was found in Liechtenstein, with zero murders The most dangerous country worldwide Saint Kitts and Nevis is the world's most dangerous country to live in in terms of murder rate. The Caribbean country had a homicide rate of 65 per 100,000 inhabitants. Nine of the 10 countries with the highest murder rates worldwide are located in Latin America and the Caribbean. Whereas Celaya in Mexico was listed as the city with the highest murder rate worldwide, Colima in Mexico was the city with the highest homicide rate in Latin America, so the numbers vary from source to source. Nevertheless, several Mexican cities rank among the deadliest in the world when it comes to intentional homicides. Violent conflicts worldwide Notably, these figures do not include deaths that resulted from war or a violent conflict. While there is a persistent number of conflicts worldwide, resulting casualties are not considered murders. Partially due to this reason, homicide rates in Latin America are higher than those in countries such as Ukraine or the DR Congo. A different definition of murder in these circumstances could change the rate significantly.

Intentional homicides are estimates of unlawful homicides purposely inflicted as a result of domestic disputes, interpersonal violence, violent conflicts over land resources, intergang violence over turf or control, and predatory violence and killing by armed groups. Intentional homicide does not include all intentional killing; the difference is usually in the organization of the killing. Individuals or small groups usually commit homicide, whereas killing in armed conflict is usually committed by fairly cohesive groups of up to several hundred members and is thus usually excluded.; ; UN Office on Drugs and Crime's International Homicide Statistics database.; Weighted average;

The Security System Services industry has received a boost from European government security expenditure, an uptick in public and private sector demand, and high-profile events like the 2024 Paris Olympic Games, which pumped significant resources into modern alarm installations, AI surveillance and drone detection. Hiking crime rates across Europe, including spikes in theft and burglaries, have spurred both households and businesses to prioritise robust security, underpinning steady sales for providers. Overall, security systems revenue in Europe is projected to rise at a compound annual rate of 0.5% over the five years through 2025, including an estimated jump of 3% in 2025 to €22.7 billion. Innovative businesses like Verisure and Ajax Systems have improved their product offerings, bringing AI-enabled sensors, digital locks and highly responsive monitoring to a wider customer base. The industry’s focus on automation, integration and remote monitoring, supported by the proliferation of IoT devices, has redefined security provision and provided a platform for growth. The industry’s profit has remained steady amid recurring monitoring contracts, heightening sales from government and commercial clients and tech-driven efficiencies. Furthermore, strained police resources and EU policy initiatives to bolster public safety have allowed security system services to fill critical security gaps, particularly in retail and urban environments. Security system revenue in Europe is forecast to swell at a compound annual rate of 4.8% over the five years through 2030, reaching €28.8 billion. The European Commission forecasts modest yet reliable GDP growth and easing inflation across major markets like France, Italy and Spain, which should release pent-up consumer and commercial spending on security infrastructure. Sustained public investment in construction and critical infrastructure, backed by landmark EU projects and increased EIB lending, is set to drive installations of CCTV, access control and 24/7 monitoring in both new and refurbished sites. The integration of AI is expected to transform intrusion detection, alarm accuracy and monitoring services. As the industry leverages AI-powered solutions and subscription-based models, it’s likely to see both higher penetration and recurring revenue streams, even as competition and demand for end-to-end, compliant systems intensify.

The purpose of the study: to investigate the attitudes of Lithuanian population about the most important threats to Lithuania as a country, different municipalities and respondents personally. Most important questions: respondents were asked what is the most important threat to Lithuania and them personally. Further, respondents were asked to identify level of threat posed by each threat provided on a list (COVID-19 or other similar pandemic, crime rates, rising food prices, etc.; a total of 30 threats) to the place, where they and their families live and / or work. Next, the survey asked which three of these threats are most important for Lithuania and for municipality where respondents live. Respondents were also asked which five of these threats had negative effect on them personally in the past 5 years. Further, respondents were asked to assess various aspects related to environmental, social, economic, technological, and geopolitical threats: how much respondents feel aware of these threats (problems), how much they and their families feel ready to overcome these threats, and how much the municipality in which they live is ready to manage these threats. Respondents' trust in the municipality where they live and / or work, as well as trust in other people, was also evaluated. Survey also asked how much respondents feel close to the place where they live, their municipality and Lithuania. At the end of the survey, respondents were asked to indicate three main sources of information (out of 8 presented, with a self-completion category) about the threats investigated in the survey. Social and demographic characteristics: age, sex, education, occupation, marital status, children under 18 living in the household, average monthly income per family member, county, type of place of residence, time of living in the place of residence, geographical coordinates of the place of residence.
