Is Lithuania safe to live in? Here is what its 80/100 safety score means in practice, and what shapes it. These are MoveMap's rough, illustrative estimates to help you get oriented, not official statistics. Always confirm the specifics with official sources before you act.
What the score means
This is a MoveMap score out of 100 (higher is safer), so 80/100 means safe: everyday crime is low and the main cities feel comfortable, including at night, with normal precautions.
What shapes it
A MoveMap safety score is a present-day snapshot of how settled daily life tends to feel, not a crime statistic. It leans on things like everyday (petty) crime versus serious crime, how comfortable public spaces feel after dark, and broader stability. Lithuania also scores well for political and institutional stability, which underpins that sense of safety.
Safety is not fixed and it is very local: a figure for the country can hide big differences between a calm residential district and a rough part of the same city. It also shifts over time, so treat this as a starting point and check current, local sources for wherever you are actually considering.
In everyday life
For most residents, the practical picture is low everyday risk: normal precautions with your phone and bag in crowds, and little to worry about at night in the main areas.
How Lithuania compares
Across the 27 EU countries, Lithuania ranks the 15th safest in this model.
