Qatar safest country for expats to live in 2025: Report
Qatar is the safest country in the Middle East, and eighth safest in the world, for expats to live in in 2025, according to recent statistics from Expatriate Group, a global conglomerate dedicated to providing international healthcare insurance for expats living, working, or studying abroad.
The latest report, which collected data on 128 countries, used the Global Peace Index to measure political stability and conflict risk, the Crime Rate Index to measure the level of crime, and the percentage risk of natural disasters to measure the likelihood of such events.
Coming eighth overall, Qatar ranks second for the lowest crime rate in the world. The country has strict laws and strong law enforcement, which contribute to an environment where violent crime is rare and petty crimes, such as theft, are infrequent. This sense of safety extends to public spaces, which helps make Qatar a comfortable place to live and work.
The country enjoys a stable governance structure and is largely free from political unrest. It has a focus on economic development and maintaining good international relations, which ensures a secure environment for residents.
