Montenegro is an appealing destination for Indian visitors, thanks to its beautiful Adriatic coastline and picturesque mountainous landscapes. As a significant player in the global tourism market, it attracts a considerable number of tourists, contributing greatly to its economy. With millions of Indians traveling abroad annually, there is potential interest in exploring Montenegro among this demographic.
Montenegro is generally considered a safe destination for tourists, including those from India. It ranks 10th among 40 European countries for safety while walking alone at night. According to the Global Peace Index, Montenegro is ranked 35th out of 160 countries, indicating a higher level of safety compared to India, which ranks 114th. In terms of crime statistics, Montenegro has a murder rate of 2.4 per 100,000 people, slightly lower than India's rate of 2.9. Additionally, female murder rates are significantly lower in Montenegro (0.6) compared to India (2.5). However, when looking at organized crime indices, Montenegro scores higher (indicating more issues) in areas such as mafia groups and crime networks compared to India. Despite this, overall, Montenegro is deemed safer than India based on various safety metrics. Tourists should still exercise standard precautions while traveling, as in any country.
