Morocco is generally considered a safe destination for tourists, including those from Tunisia. According to the Global Peace Index, Morocco ranks 76th out of 160 countries, while Tunisia is slightly better at 72nd. In terms of crime statistics, the murder rate in Morocco is significantly lower at 1.9 per 100,000 people compared to Tunisia's 4.8. When looking at organized crime, both countries score equally for mafia presence (1.0), but Morocco has higher indices for crime networks (6.5 vs. Tunisia's 4.0) and state crime (7.0 vs. Tunisia's 5.5). However, Morocco performs better in areas such as arms trafficking and resource crime. Overall, while both countries have their challenges, Morocco is relatively safe for tourists, comparable to Tunisia in many respects.
