Sweden attracts a segment of Norwegian visitors due to its scenic landscapes and vibrant cities, supported by a strong tourism infrastructure. While it sees a modest number of international tourists, its appeal lies in quality experiences. With 1.7 million Norwegians traveling abroad annually, a portion is likely to consider Sweden as a travel destination.
Sweden is generally safe for tourists coming from Norway, but there are some differences in safety rankings. According to safety statistics, Sweden ranks 36th out of 40 countries for safety while walking alone at night, compared to Norway's 18th place. However, the Global Peace Index ranks Sweden 39th out of 160 countries, indicating it is relatively safe, though still behind Norway, which is ranked 28th. In terms of crime rates, Sweden has a higher murder rate of 1.1 per 100,000 people, compared to Norway's 0.5. Additionally, various organized crime indices show that Norway typically scores better than Sweden across multiple categories, such as mafia groups and crime networks. Overall, while Sweden is a safe destination, tourists should be aware of these differences in safety and crime statistics compared to Norway.
