In the first half of 2025, Uzbekistan ranked among the 25 safest countries in the world according to analyses conducted by international experts. This was reported by Zamin.uz.
In the global safety ranking compiled by the Numbeo platform, our country secured the 25th place among 148 countries with a score of 73.4. This ranking is based on the personal opinions and daily experiences of the population, differing from official statistics.
The ranking takes into account indicators such as safety when going out, crime rates, theft, physical assaults, and instances of violence. The safety index is rated from 0 to 100, where a higher score indicates stability and peace in the country.
Uzbekistan's crime index stands at 26.6, indicating that citizens feel relatively safe. Interestingly, Uzbekistan performed better than many developed countries, including Japan, France, and Germany.
Among Central Asian countries, our nation is also leading. For example, Kazakhstan participated in the ranking at 73rd place with a score of 54.4, while Kyrgyzstan ranked 101st with a score of 48.
These indicators confirm Uzbekistan's regional leadership in the field of security. At the top of the ranking are countries like the United Arab Emirates, Andorra, and Qatar, which have implemented strict measures in their security policies.
At the lowest ranks are politically and socially unstable countries such as Haiti, Papua New Guinea, and Venezuela. These countries have high crime rates, posing risks to both the population and tourists.
Officials attribute this achievement to the improvement of law enforcement activities in recent years, strengthening preventive measures, and increasing public oversight. Additionally, a high safety index is considered a significant factor in enhancing tourism, investment, and international reputation.
The ability of the Uzbek population to walk freely in the streets, enjoy leisure at night, and send children to school without worry reflects the level of peace and security in the country. Therefore, it can be concluded that the population of our country feels relatively calm and secure.
