The United Kingdom is an iconic and diverse destination, celebrated for its history, culture, and scenic landscapes. Although there has been a recent decline in tourist arrivals, it still attracts considerable international interest, reflected in its strong tourist revenue. Among the 12.4 million Italians who travel abroad annually, a portion may find the UK appealing for their travels.
The safety of the United Kingdom for tourists from Italy can be assessed through various rankings and statistics. According to safety rankings while walking alone at night, the UK is ranked 37th out of 40 countries, similar to Italy, which is ranked 34th. However, the Global Peace Index places the UK at 34th out of 160 countries, indicating it is relatively safe, comparable to Italy's 33rd position. In terms of crime statistics, the murder rate in the UK is 1.0 per 100,000 people, slightly higher than Italy's 0.5. When examining organized crime, Italy scores higher on mafia presence (9.0) compared to the UK (4.0), while the UK has lower scores in state crime (3.0) and arms trafficking (3.5), indicating a somewhat safer environment in those areas.
