According to Numbeo, the ****** data is derived from surveys conducted by visitors to their website. The questions in the surveys are designed to be similar to those in many scientific and government surveys.

Numbeo says the ****** index is an estimation of the overall level of ****** in a given city or country.

“We consider ****** levels lower than 20 as very low, ****** levels between 20 and 40 as low, ****** levels between 40 and 60 as moderate, ****** levels between 60 and 80 as high, and ****** levels higher than 80 as very high,” said Numbeo

The ****** index takes into account survey responses about:– The general perception of ****** levels– Perceived safety: Survey responses from residents and visitors regarding their feelings of safety while walking during daylight and at night.– Concerns about specific *******: Survey questions about worries regarding mugging, robbery, car theft, physical attacks by strangers, harassment in public places, and discrimination based on factors like skin ******, ethnicity, gender, or religion.– Property *******: Assessment of the extent of property-related *******, such as burglary, theft, vandalism, etc.– Violent *******: Evaluation of the perception of violent *******, including ********, *********, ******* offenses, etc.

“It’s important to note that the ****** index provided by Numbeo is based on user-contributed data and perceptions, which may differ from official government statistics. The index serves as a comparative tool to assess the relative safety of different cities or countries, helping individuals make informed decisions and understand the ****** landscape in specific locations,” said Numbeo

In April, The Shelby County ****** Commission and the University of Memphis released numbers showing violent *******, including *********, *****, robbery, larceny, aggravated ********, burglary, auto theft, and human trafficking, had steadily dropped from July until March of this year.

The police data showed reports of those ******* were nearly cut in half from eight months before. According to
