The homicide rate is 6.6 times what it is in America (US = 4.7 vs. SA = 31.0). And there are 107 countries with lower homicide rates than the US.
However, your specific locale in these countries and specific factors about you and your behaviors are more relevant than the overall homicide rate.
You know that's better than the homicide rate in New Orleans, LA or Newark, NJ -- right? X-/
