But have they lived in Sweden? Which cities? For how long? How could they compare?

I really doubt in those statistics, it also might have something to do with how many report rape in other European countries and what they even consider to be rape.

There is no way that it's worse than in Eastern European countries or in South.

take it with a grain of salt

There is no way to "observe and compare". I've been to Chicago many times and felt completely safe, but that doesn't make it a safe city. I live in the fifth most dangerous state in the US, in the most dangerous city in that state, but I live and stay in the areas that have low crime rates, so I feel safe. 

You have to look at statistics, and the stats say that Sweden currently has a high rate of violence against women. Now, I'm sure that if I lived in the right area and only went to areas that were considered to be safe, I wouldn't feel unsafe. 

All I was saying is that it is a negative when choosing a place to travel, study abroad, move to or raise a family....one might want to be aware of the statistics. The stats are a reason for concern, and at the very least, it is best to be aware and to take precautions.

There's been quite a few articles on that and a lot of them seem to come to those conclusions. It's a bit odd to even try dispute that Sweden (and the nordic countries in general) aren't among some of the best (if not the best) countries in the world.

it's more like Swedish women are more likely to report any type of sexual harrasment compare to women from other countries in Europe. Sweden is very good for studying or raising family. I have relatives living there for over 30 years.

"Muslim statistics" 

I actually burst out laughing. 

Ok, I found this from BBC: @VampireHeart

Sweden has the highest rape rate in Europe, author Naomi Wolf said on the BBC's Newsnight programme recently. She was commenting on the case of Julian Assange, the Wikileaks founder who is fighting extradition from the UK to Sweden over rape and sexual assault allegations that he denies.

Is it true? Yes. The Swedish police recorded the highest number of offences - about 63 per 100,000 inhabitants - of any force in Europe, in 2010. The second-highest in the world.

This was three times higher than the number of cases in the same year in Sweden's next-door neighbour, Norway, and twice the rate in the United States and the UK. It was more than 30 times the number in India, which recorded about two offences per 100,000 people.

On the face of it, it would seem Sweden is a much more dangerous place than these other countries.

But that is a misconception, according to Klara Selin, a sociologist at the National Council for Crime Prevention in Stockholm. She says you cannot compare countries' records, because police procedures and legal definitions vary widely.

"In Sweden there has been this ambition explicitly to record every case of sexual violence separately, to make it visible in the statistics," she says.

"So, for instance, when a woman comes to the police and she says my husband or my fiance raped me almost every day during the last year, the police have to record each of these events, which might be more than 300 events. In many other countries it would just be one record - one victim, one type of crime, one record."

The thing is, the number of reported rapes has been going up in Sweden - it's almost trebled in just the last seven years. In 2003, about 2,200 offences were reported by the police, compared to nearly 6,000 in 2010.

- Seems you were right about the reporting of rape.

Hey, my city and state (it was fifth most dangerous, not second) is very good for education or raising a family! I've had family living in this city for well over a hundred years. That doesn't mean it isn't a city or state that is ranked as a dangerous city and state. There are hundreds of thousands of families that live here that feel perfectly safe...that doesn't mean that the statistics aren't true or real.

I know they have troubles in Malmö or some suburbs in Stockholm, and yes there is high crime rate amongst ALL immigrants (not just those some of these ggd racists hate) in those areas, but many of those things seem exaggerated. It's a really good country.

Thank you.

@Morphine Prince this part explains it well

 

"Which two countries are the kidnapping capitals of the world?

Australia and Canada.

Official figures from the United Nations show that there were 17 kidnaps per 100,000 people in Australia in 2010 and 12.7 in Canada.

That compares with only 0.6 in Colombia and 1.1 in Mexico.

So why haven't we heard any of these horror stories? Are people being grabbed off the street in Sydney and Toronto, while the world turns a blind eye?

No, the high numbers of kidnapping cases in these two countries are explained by the fact that parental disputes over child custody are included in the figures.

If one parent takes a child for the weekend, and the other parent objects and calls the police, the incident will be recorded as a kidnapping, according to Enrico Bisogno, a statistician with the United Nations." 

[lego 44,165]

This was three times higher than the number of cases in the same year in Sweden's next-door neighbour, Norway, and twice the rate in the United States and the UK. It was more than 30 times the number in India, which recorded about two offences per 100,000 people.

 

30 times more than in India...  

The statistics can be misleading.

 

 

EDIT: more from that BBC article

 

But Klara Selin says the statistics don't represent a major crime epidemic, rather a shift in attitudes. The public debate about this sort of crime in Sweden over the past two decades has had the effect of raising awareness, she says, and encouraging women to go to the police if they have been attacked.

The police have also made efforts to improve their handling of cases, she suggests, though she doesn't deny that there has been some real increase in the number of attacks taking place - a concern also outlined in an Amnesty International report in 2010.

"There might also be some increase in actual crime because of societal changes. Due to the internet, for example, it's much easier these days to meet somebody, just the same evening if you want to. Also, alcohol consumption has increased quite a lot during this period.

"But the major explanation is partly that people go to the police more often, but also the fact that in 2005 there has been reform in the sex crime legislation, which made the legal definition of rape much wider than before."

The change in law meant that cases where the victim was asleep or intoxicated are now included in the figures. Previously they'd been recorded as another category of crime.

So an on-the-face-of-it international comparison of rape statistics can be misleading.

Botswana has the highest rate of recorded attacks - 92.9 per 100,000 people - but a total of 63 countries don't submit any statistics, including South Africa, where a survey three years ago showed that one in four men questioned admitted to rape.

In 2010, an Amnesty International report highlighted that sexual violence happens in every single country, and yet the official figures show that some countries like Hong Kong and Mongolia have zero cases reported.

Evidently, women in some countries are much less likely to report an attack than in others and are much less likely to have their complaint recorded.
