Sweden offers a compelling experience for Maltese travelers, thanks to its stunning landscapes and lively cities, supported by a strong tourism infrastructure. While it attracts a modest number of international visitors, it stands out as a quality destination. With around 200,000 Maltese traveling abroad annually, a portion may find Sweden appealing.
Sweden is generally safe for tourists, but it has some safety concerns compared to Malta. In a ranking of safety while walking alone at night, Sweden ranks 36th out of 40 countries, while Malta is 26th. The Global Peace Index places Sweden 39th among 160 countries, with no available data for Malta. In terms of crime statistics, Malta has a significantly lower murder rate at 0.4 per 100,000 people, compared to Sweden's 1.1. The organized crime indices show that Malta generally fares better than Sweden in areas like mafia presence and various crime networks. While Sweden is a peaceful country overall, tourists should remain aware of their surroundings, especially at night.
