Overview
- Bangkok-based Instagram creator Emma (@discoverwithemma_) shared city-by-city safety impressions from a solo trip, saying the ratings reflect how safe she felt rather than objective measures.
- Her scores list Delhi as the lowest at −1/10, followed by Agra 3/10, Jaipur 5/10, Pushkar 6.5/10, Mumbai 6.5/10, Udaipur 8/10, Goa 8/10, and Kerala at 9/10.
- She praised Kerala for calm, cleanliness and respectful interactions, and advised first-time visitors to begin there, while describing Delhi as overwhelming with stares, chaos and constant noise.
- The post prompted active online discussion, with Reddit users particularly contesting Mumbai’s 6.5/10 and trading personal accounts that both defend and challenge that score.
- Indian outlets amplified the viral post and noted its subjectivity, and Hindustan Times said it has requested more details from the creator, with no official city responses cited.
