How the Rankings Were Determined
CEOWORLD magazine gathered information from foreign travelers, immigrants, expats, experts, and residents about their experiences in different countries over the past five years. These personal safety ratings were then combined with other indices such as the Global Peace Index, the State Department’s travel safety ratings, and GeoSure Global scores of major cities.
These rankings highlight the safety of several GCC nations, making them attractive destinations for travelers and expatriates.
