At 85/100 Amalfi sits firmly in the "Very Safe" band — meaning baseline travel here is broadly comparable to safe Western capitals. The typical traveller in Amalfi, Colombia is not at elevated personal-safety risk, but you should still apply normal big-city precautions: don't leave bags on cafe chairs, stay alert at major transit hubs after dark, and check the per-sub-score breakdown below for any single category where Amalfi under-performs.
Globally, a score of 85/100 places Amalfi top 15% of cities Kakapo tracks — comparable to Vienna, Munich, Sydney, and Helsinki. Score bands aren't arbitrary: each is calibrated against the WHO global crime + injury database and the consolidated advisory levels of seven major Western foreign ministries.
Kakapo's Amalfi safety score is a weighted composite of personal-safety, transport, healthcare, and night-safety signals pulled from 50+ trusted sources — including national travel advisories (US State Department, UK FCDO, Canada, Australia, France, Germany), local crime indices, the WHO Global Burden of Disease for medical infrastructure, and air-quality APIs (IQAir, WAQI). Sub-scores are recalculated automatically as advisories and incident data change, so this page reflects the current state of travel safety for Amalfi, not a snapshot from months ago; last updated 2026-07-02.
The four sub-scores — personal-safety, transport, healthcare, and night-safety — are weighted to reflect what actually matters to travellers (not residents). Personal-safety carries the largest weight because pickpocketing, scams, and after-dark crime are the highest-frequency incidents reported by visitors. Transport reflects road-traffic injury rates plus taxi/transit reliability. Healthcare grades private-clinic access and English-speaking specialist availability, not the national system as a whole. Night-safety is calibrated separately because the gap between daytime and after-dark risk varies city-to-city — sometimes by 20+ points.
Amalfi currently scores 85/100 on Kakapo's composite safety index — very safe. The score weighs personal-safety, transport, healthcare, and night-safety signals from 50+ sources including national travel advisories (US State Dept, UK FCDO, Canadian government, Australian Smartraveller) and local crime indices. Most travellers visit Amalfi without incident at this score level, but you should read the sub-score breakdown and the in-depth Amalfi guide before booking.
Amalfi's night-safety sub-score is 50/100 — dangerous. Treat night-time as elevated risk: registered taxis or rideshare only, avoid solo walking after dark, and consult the in-depth Amalfi guide for the specific neighbourhoods to avoid. See the live report for the neighbourhood-by-neighbourhood breakdown.
Amalfi's composite score of 85/100 is a baseline; solo female travellers should additionally factor in the personal-safety sub-score (53/100 — dangerous) and the country-specific advisories for Colombia. The in-depth Amalfi guide on Kakapo includes a profile-adjustment view that recalibrates the overall score for solo female, family, LGBTQ+, and elderly traveller profiles — the same logic the live safety report uses.
The headline concerns in Amalfi cluster around the lowest sub-scores in the breakdown above. Personal-safety (53/100) is the most actionable area — pickpocketing in tourist zones, ATM-side card skimming, and distraction scams. Transport (65/100) flags either road-traffic injury rates, taxi-overcharging, or transit safety after hours. Healthcare access (69/100) means you should travel with comprehensive insurance that covers private clinics + medevac.

Yes — Amalfi's healthcare sub-score is 69/100, which means private-clinic access and English-speaking specialists are uneven. A comprehensive policy that covers private treatment + medical evacuation is the standard recommendation.
Kakapo recalculates city safety scores automatically as the underlying sources change — typically within 24 hours of a new national advisory, a flagged incident report, or a refreshed crime-index batch. The composite score is the weighted sum of the four sub-scores you see above; the live report explains the per-source weight and the methodology in more detail.
