    Sweden is safe.
    Yes, we do have i rise in gang related violence. Yes it is rightly described as catastrophical.
    For Sweden.
    It is compared to an extremely low baseline, and it's parallel to a major decrease in other crimes. Compared to history, you are less likely to be assaulted, robbed, raped, or killed than in the last five decades.
    But it's true that you are more probable to be the victim of gang related violence. But the probability of that is still low.
    You're still safer than in most parts of the world.
