There might be no place we could say a safe city these days.
But an interesting ranking, which city is the safest in 2015, was widely announce by The Economist.
It’s ranked by the study called The Safe Cities Index 2015, and the result is quite unique against our expectation.
Let’s see full of the list how our cities ranked below anyway.

Could you see your city in the list?
I think there’s more or less a bit gap between this ranking and our thoughts as it’s influenced by individual impression for each city.
To be honest, I didn’t think Tokyo was the safest as we sometimes see terrible crimes and miserable accidents through medias in daily life.
After having an explosion in a public toilet at Yasukuni Shrine in Tokyo the other day, main cities in Japan might need to increase alerts more especially against terrorists.
