In 2024, the capital city of Tunisia, Tunis, was the safest city in Africa. It had a score of roughly 52.2 points in the safety index, making it the African city with the lowest crime incidents. Cairo, in Egypt, and Algiers, in Algeria followed.

In 2024, Indonesia's capital city Jakarta had a safety index score of 47.3, showing the same value with the year prior. However, this reflects a significant decrease from the safety index score in 2016.

Municipal index for the theme Safety and safety is based on the indicators Students in year 9: I feel safe in school, positive responses, percentage (%), Population aged 16-84 who refrain from going out alone, percentage (%). The KPIs are normalised so that all municipalities’ values are placed on a scale from 0 to 100 where 0 is the worst and 100 is best (for some indicators, inverted scale is used). In the next step, the normalised indicator values are weighed together into indices at aspect level (the theme is currently based on indicators within one aspect). This is done with averages, all indicators weighed together with the same weight in each aspect. Then the index at aspect level is weighed together to the thematic level according to the same principle and these values also fall between 0 and 100. The weighting is equal for all aspects of the theme.

City Planning Staff built a GIS model to help prioritize locations in the city for safety improvements based on severity of crashes and need of the surrounding community. Essentially, the model aggregated crash data points into street segments, weights the crashes by severity, and factors other context, like proximity to schools, senior housing, buses, into a final score.Both the final index score and the various aggregate crash numbers are useful for understanding safety conditions on Cleveland's streets and identifying the worst problem intersections.MethodologyBreak up Cleveland's street network in comparable segments including intersections.Aggregate crash data within those segments (sum crashes by severity type)Score the crash history for the segment (Crash_Score_Total)Identify context points of interest in vicinity (schools, senior centers, bus stops so far) of the street.Score the context for how many things are nearby that require extra proactive attention.Identify the social health and vulnerability of the street segment using CDC's Social Vulnerability Index and how it ranks within ClevelandCombine the crash score and context score.Boost scores based on social vulnerability, e.g. elevate streets in neighborhoods experiencing more poverty, racial discrimination, housing and transportation challenges.Data GlossaryFor all crashes: Click here, then click on "Fields" to view documentation.For bike and pedestrian classes: Click here, then click on "Fields" to view documentation.Update FrequencyNeverContactsCleveland City Planning Commission

Cities are in constant competition for residents, business and employees and inclusiveness is an important factor that attracts all three. The Municipal Equality Index (MEI) specifically measures laws and policies of municipalities to examine how inclusive cities are of LGBTQ (Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, Transgender and Questioning) people.Administered by the Human Rights Campaign, the MEI scorecard criteria annually evaluates a municipality on six categories with bonus points available: Non-Discrimination Laws: This category evaluates whether discrimination on the basis of sexual orientation and gender identity is prohibited by city, county or state in areas of employment m housing and public accommodations.Relationship Recognition: Marriage, civil unions, and comprehensive domestic partnerships are matters of state policy; cities and counties have only the power to create domestic partner registries.Municipality as Employer: By offering equivalent benefits and protections to LGBTQ employees, and by awarding contracts to fair-minded businesses, municipalities commit themselves to treating LGBTQ employees equally.Municipal Services: The section assesses the efforts of the city to ensure LGBTQ constituents are included in city services and programs.Law Enforcement: Fair enforcement of the law includes responsible reporting of hate crimes and engaging with the LGBTQ community in a thoughtful and respectful way.Relationship with the LGBTQ Community: This category measures the city leadership’s commitment to fully include the LGBTQ community and to advocate for full equality.Additional information available at hrc.org/meiThis page provides data for the Municipality Equality Index performance measure.The performance measure dashboard is available at 3.12 Municipal Equality Index.Additional InformationSource: Contact: Wydale HolmesContact E-Mail: wydale_holmes@tempe.govData Source Type: ExcelPreparation Method: Publish Frequency: Annually, OctoberPublish Method: ManualData Dictionary

The Division of Criminal Justice Services (DCJS) collects crime reports from more than 500 New York State police and sheriffs' departments. DCJS compiles these reports as New York's official crime statistics and submits them to the FBI under the National Uniform Crime Reporting (UCR) Program. UCR uses standard offense definitions to count crime in localities across America regardless of variations in crime laws from state to state. In New York State, law enforcement agencies use the UCR system to report their monthly crime totals to DCJS. The UCR reporting system collects information on seven crimes classified as Index offenses which are most commonly used to gauge overall crime volume. These include the violent crimes of murder/non-negligent manslaughter, forcible rape, robbery, and aggravated assault; and the property crimes of burglary, larceny, and motor vehicle theft. Police agencies may experience reporting problems that preclude accurate or complete reporting. The counts represent only crimes reported to the police but not total crimes that occurred. DCJS posts preliminary data in the spring and final data in the fall.

The safety index score in Bangkok, Thailand, reached 59.5 in 2023, indicating a slight increase from the previous year, which was 58.5. The safety index score in Bangkok has fluctuated over the years.

This dataset includes the final Technical Note and accompanying GIS datasets delivered by Cardno and UNSW for their proof-of-concept Passive Surveillance Index (PSI) trial in Parramatta, through TfNSW’s Safety After Dark Innovation Challenge (SADIC).

The PSI scores walking routes based on quantifiable indicators. The tool may be a starting point for planners to make informed decisions on how safe cities may factor passive surveillance into their design. The web map visually displays the PSI for different times of the night across the trial area. This website works best using the Google Chrome browser.

This map shows a comparable measure of crime in the United States. The crime index compares the average local crime level to that of the United States as a whole. An index of 100 is average. A crime index of 120 indicates that crime in that area is 20 percent above the national average.The crime data is provided by Applied Geographic Solutions, Inc. (AGS). AGS created models using the FBI Uniform Crime Report databases as the primary data source and using an initial range of about 65 socio-economic characteristics taken from the 2000 Census and AGS’ current year estimates. The crimes included in the models include murder, rape, robbery, assault, burglary, theft, and motor vehicle theft. The total crime index incorporates all crimes and provides a useful measure of the relative “overall” crime rate in an area. However, these are unweighted indexes, meaning that a murder is weighted no more heavily than a purse snatching in the computations. The geography depicts states, counties, Census tracts and Census block groups. An urban/rural "mask" layer helps you identify crime patterns in rural and urban settings. The Census tracts and block groups help identify neighborhood-level variation in the crime data.------------------------The Civic Analytics Network collaborates on shared projects that advance the use of data visualization and predictive analytics in solving important urban problems related to economic opportunity, poverty reduction, and addressing the root causes of social problems of equity and opportunity.

Illinois Uniform Crime Reporting (IUCR) codes are four digit codes that law enforcement agencies use to classify criminal incidents when taking individual reports. These codes are also used to aggregate types of cases for statistical purposes. In Illinois, the Illinois State Police establish IUCR codes, but the agencies can add codes to suit their individual needs. The Chicago Police Department currently uses more than 400 IUCR codes to classify criminal offenses, divided into “Index” and “Non-Index” offenses. Index offenses are the offenses that are collected nation-wide by the Federal Bureaus of Investigation’s Uniform Crime Reports program to document crime trends over time (data released semi-annually), and include murder, criminal sexual assault, robbery, aggravated assault & battery, burglary, theft, motor vehicle theft, and arson. Non-index offenses are all other types of criminal incidents, including vandalism, weapons violations, public peace violations, etc.
