Where's the safest place to live in the world?

Question

With many other countries hating the US do you think it's a safe place to live? Would you want to raise a family here or would you feel safer in another free country like Canada or the United Kingdom?
If you had the option to live anywhere, where would you and why?

Answer 1

This is the site that I came up with when I searched the web. There are a couple different categories: Best places to raise a family, Safest places to live, Best places to reinvent yourself,...check this website out.

Answer 2

The United State is a very safe place to live. Even if other countries hate the US we live far from them. The only two countries that border us don't hate us. If any other country wants to attack us, they would have a hard time getting here. Our only real threat is from terrorist attacks because they get into the country and attack us from within, but a bombing here or there isn't going to come close to bringing us down.

Answer 3

Switzerland and Japan
I admit that I'm too pro- America to move their myself, but after having traveled for my studies, these two are the safest. Switzerland is historically neutral and is home to part of the UN. Its sooo neutral, that all the signs are in several languages to avoid showing poor feeling towards French, Germans, and Swiss... and its pretty. Japan has an awfully low crime rate and few gun related deaths, great shopping, and you can easily fell immersed in their culture, but its crowded and expensive if you don't know where to go... but it beautiful as well. Safe travels!

Answer 4

"A minority of the Polish people at the time tried to help their fellow Poles of the Jewish faith but the majority seemed to go along with the extermination policy of the occupying Nazi Germans" Warren "a history teacher" is obviously biased and tries to push some old anti-Polish propaganda down your throat. More Christian Poles helped Jewish Poles than the other way round. Remember that until 1942 it was much safer to be a Jewish Pole than a Christian Pole in Nazi-occupied Poland. The extermination of anything Polish began as early as September 1939, while the Polish Jews were locked up in ghettos and were not subject to mass murder yet. The situation changed after the Wannsee Conference when their fate was sealed but until then they were pretty much left to their own devices. At that time, the systematic decapitation of the Polish society was in full swing. And the claim that the Christian Poles went along with the extermination of the Polish Jews is proposterous. The war left 6 million Polish citizens dead, 3 million of them Christians. Do you honestly believe that we considered Germans anything but our worst enemies? When in 1939 Russians invaded Eastern Poland, many Polish Jews welcomed the occupiers and joined local communist militia and government structures that went after ethnic Poles. In any society such behaviour is considered treason. When in 1941 the territories were captured by Germans, the Polish Jews who had cooperated with the Soviets two years before were punished for persecuting their compatriots. Historically, Poland was a safe haven for Jewish people who were discriminated against and expelled from other European countries. Nobody forced them to settle in Poland, they just flocked there. It was the only country that allowed them to practice their religon and observe their customs. They had their schools, newspapers, theaters, you name it.

Answer 5

Scandinavian Countries (Sweden, Norway, Finland, Denmark) seem to be very safe, also Switzerland, Austria, Malta and Singapore (although not really being a free country).

I stay in Switzerland. :-))

Answer 6

I'd say America's as safe as anywhere. Even Canada just caught those terrorists who planned to attack them. If you want to feel "safe", then you should stay away from big metropolis areas. I can't guarantee you won't die though.

Answer 7

Any Osama Bin Laden here? He should be the one who can answer the question.Why?Because we will never know which country he is going to attack and when.There's no safe place again in the world.Oops..there is...Osama Bin Laden's castle maybe..

Answer 8

New Zealand, no body has anything against that country, and far away from the troubled spots in the world.

Answer 9

I think those countries are: Sweden, Norway, Finland, Singapore, Switzerland.

Answer 10

US is still one of the best places to live tho-- I'll stay here.
