which ranks 60 cities across 57 indicators covering digital security, health security, infrastructure security and personal security. As it has in previous editions, Tokyo had the highest overall score in this year's index - 92 out of 100.

U.S. cities generally lag behind in most safety metrics with Washington D.C. and Chicago making the top-10.
