About this app

Risky Cities empowers travelers with essential information to stay safe while exploring the world. It provides insights into various risks such as political instability, weather hazards, crime, and violence. By aggregating and analyzing data from multiple sources, Risky Cities offers a comprehensive understanding of risk patterns and trends in cities worldwide.

The platform goes beyond crime statistics by examining historical records to uncover the underlying factors that contribute to a city's safety. This contextual information helps travelers grasp the unique risk landscapes of different destinations. Risky Cities also features an interactive map that highlights crime hotspots and safe zones within countries, enabling users to identify areas to avoid or exercise caution.

In addition to risk information, Risky Cities offers practical advice tailored to each city. This includes guidance on local customs, cultural sensitivities, and specific risks associated with certain areas or activities. By providing targeted advice, the platform enables travelers to make informed decisions about their travel plans and stay safe.

Risky Cities serves as an indispensable resource for those who prioritize their safety while traveling. With its comprehensive data, historical context, interactive maps, and tailored advice, the platform equips users with the knowledge they need to navigate their journeys confidently. Whether planning a family vacation, solo adventure, or business trip, Risky Cities is the go-to source for essential information on risks and safety considerations.

As risk is a complex term which entails multiple dimensions, the risky countries map was calculated from a number of sources, trying to capture the aggregated risk of living or visiting a particular city or country:

• Mortality rate attributed to household and ambient air pollution (World Health Organization, Global Health Observatory Data Repository
• UN Office on Drugs and Crime's International Homicide Statistics database
• International Labour Organization. "ILO Modelled Estimates and Projections database" ILOSTAT
• The Global Economy - Political stability
• Trading Economics’ Inflation Rate
• Decadal average: Annual number of people affected by disasters per 100,000, 2020 (Our World in Data based on EM-DAT, CRED / UCLouvain)
• United Nations Population Division. World Population Prospects: 2022 Revision, or derived from male and female life expectancy at birth, from sources such as: Census reports and other statistical publications from national statistical offices, Eurostat: Demographic Statistics, United Nations Statistical Division. Population and Vital Statistics Reprot (various years), U.S. Census Bureau: International Database, and Secretariat of the Pacific Community: Statistics and Demography Programme.
