"Angola is better at 4.85"
Do you really think Angola's homicide rate is under 5 per 100k? Half the worldwide average? This is a pretty wild claim, knowing Angolan society.
OSAC notes that "A large percentage of street crime goes unreported and does not appear in official police statistics" -- it seems much more likely that this low number is a function of limited police reporting and data collection, rather than actual safety.
