Spain is a highly appealing destination for many Serbians, thanks to its vibrant culture, stunning landscapes, and rich historical heritage. As the third most visited country globally, it attracts millions of tourists each year, making it an attractive option for a segment of Serbia's 7 million population.
Spain is generally considered safe for tourists, including those from Serbia. According to safety rankings, Spain is 22nd out of 40 countries for safety while walking alone at night, which is lower than Serbia's ranking of 13th. However, the Global Peace Index ranks Spain 23rd out of 160 countries, indicating it is safer than Serbia, which ranks 53rd. In terms of murder rates, Spain has a lower rate at 0.6 per 100,000 people compared to Serbia's 1.1. Additionally, Spain performs better in several organized crime indices, particularly in state crime and resource crime. Overall, while Spain may not be as safe as Serbia in certain aspects, it is still considered a relatively safe destination for tourists.
