Besides its natural beauty, Cyprus offers a very safe environment, with low stress levels and crime rates, ideal for a peaceful family life. Cyprus is the 5th safest country in the world, according to recent statistics, and one of the safest countries in the EU – and crime is virtually non-existent. It is safe to walk around all towns and villages whether day or night. Few locations in the world can offer the same level of security and stability that Cyprus does. It is for this reason that Cyprus has been established as not only a popular tourist destination, but as one of Europe’s top spots for expats, business professionals and retirees. Indeed, Cyprus has the second highest percentage of foreign citizens in the European Union. The biggest group of expats living in Cyprus consists of British nationals, but there are also large communities of Americans, Russians and other Eastern European nationals.
Indicatively Cyprus is ranked as:
| 1st SAFEST COUNTRY (of population less than 5 min) |
| 4th HIGHER EDUCATION & TRAINING (out of 144 countries) |
| 5th SAFEST COUNTRY (Worldwide) |
| 5th BEST RELOCATION DESTINATION |
| 13th PASSPORT POWER RANK |
