- bombcar 3y agoIt is probably "somewhat" true when accounting for all possible variables, as the better the weather the more time people spend outside. Crime rises in the summer in most areas, iirc.
- mixmixmix 3y agoYou’re greatly misinformed. Russia and Belarus are tons safer than your average American or Western European city.
- megapolitics 3y agoThat’s just not true. The violent crime rate in Russia is many times that of any Western European country, and their intentional homicide rate is slightly higher than America’s. In terms of murder rate Belarus sits much closer to Western Europe than America, but it still sits above Western Europe.
