I can tell you that this is probably the most safe country in the world. Everyone here is homogenous, and Norway has an extremely low poverty rate. When no one wants to kill each other because of race or religion and when everyone has enough money, crime is extremely low. Hence, Norway is one of, if not the safest country on Earth.

Norway is indeed one of the safest places in the world to live in. Crime and poverty are almost non-existent. The rural and urban areas in Norway are magnificent and peaceful. Norway has several good qualities that make it a truly safe country to live in.
