Singa scores 51/100 — "Dangerous". This is a destination where travel-safety risk is high enough that most national advisories will flag it. We recommend reading the full live report and the in-depth guide before booking, paying close attention to which neighbourhoods are off-limits, what local scams are active, and which sub-score (personal, transport, healthcare, night) is dragging the composite down. The full live report explains the per-category breakdown, the advisory sources we weighted, and the profile-specific adjustments that may raise or lower this number for your trip.
Globally, a score of 51/100 places Singa bottom 15% of cities Kakapo tracks — comparable to destinations under active national travel advisories. 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 Singa 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 Singa, not a snapshot from months ago; last updated 2026-06-15.
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.
Singa currently scores 51/100 on Kakapo's composite safety index — dangerous. 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 Singa without incident at this score level, but you should read the sub-score breakdown and the in-depth Singa guide before booking.
Singa's night-safety sub-score is 26/100 — dangerous. Treat night-time as elevated risk: registered taxis or rideshare only, avoid solo walking after dark, and consult the in-depth Singa guide for the specific neighbourhoods to avoid. See the live report for the neighbourhood-by-neighbourhood breakdown.
Singa's composite score of 51/100 is a baseline; solo female travellers should additionally factor in the personal-safety sub-score (34/100 — dangerous) and the country-specific advisories for Sudan. The in-depth Singa 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 Singa cluster around the lowest sub-scores in the breakdown above. Personal-safety (34/100) is the most actionable area — pickpocketing in tourist zones, ATM-side card skimming, and distraction scams. Transport (35/100) flags either road-traffic injury rates, taxi-overcharging, or transit safety after hours. Healthcare access (44/100) means you should travel with comprehensive insurance that covers private clinics + medevac.

Yes — Singa's healthcare sub-score is 44/100, 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.
