The Economist Intelligence Unit's 2019 Safe Cities Index (SCI) has ranked 60 destinations across the world in terms of their digital security, health security, infrastructure and personal safety.
The only US city to hit the top 10 was capital Washington DC (number 7), although Chicago just missed out, coming in at number 11.
While analyzing a city's resilience, the Safe Cities Index looked at the emergency services available in the city, transport facilities, catastrophe insurance, disaster-risk development and cyber-security preparedness.
The European city of Amsterdam is apparently one of Europe's safest spots.
