These may also fit your criteria: Osaka, Busan, St. Petersburg, Budapest, Mykonos. I mean none of this is super safe but it's no Mexico either, litlle chance you'll get kidnapped by the mafia or killed by radical Islamic terrorism like Paris.
Western Europe dangerous!? I think you must be mixing it up with South America, South Africa, Mexico and the USA surely?

Thieves in Europe are usually in France, Italy and Spain 。。Especially in tourist cities Rome Paris Barcelona Madrid..Some people say that Eastern European cities are dirty ..But I think Paris and Rome .. Many places are also dirty..I was shocked when I went to Paris It's different from the imagined romantic capital... The environment is not clean ..Public security is also bad.Under the viaduct were refugee tents.........Garbage is everywhere。Only the areas with dense scenic spots in the urban area are clean and tidy, The subway is filthy,There is no safety door.Notre Dame de Paris is very ordinary,The Seine is a very ordinary river. ... Rome is also broken everywhere.. Compared with Shanghai, Hangzhou, Nanjing, Suzhou and Ningbo in eastern China And Guangzhou, Hong Kong and Shenzhen in the south... feel that infrastructure and modernization are too poor

You seem to look down on Taiwan. I am not Taiwanese, however, I'd have to give credit for their superb COVID quarantine measures.

It's not that I despise Taiwan . The best city in East Asia and Europe All the cities I've been to. Only Shenzhen is this standard.. The subway in Shenzhen is the best Subway can use WiFi The subway has a TV . The subway can also be used for shopping You don't need cash. You can pay for anything with your phone and face. KFC may only have 20 to 25 packages in the United States But some fast food restaurants in Shenzhen have 70 to 80 set meals.90% of buses are electric 80% of the world's mobile phones come from China 70% of China's mobile phone production comes from Shenzhen The world's largest game company is Tencent 70% of the world's civil UAVs come from Shenzhen. Compared with other big cities in the world, It has no broken buildings.

Yes, for Parisians, freedom is greater than life.. Parisians like to protest Now Parisians have begun to protest against vaccination....Now many Europeans are anti intellectual You know God, it doesn't exist. one who died cannot come back to life..For the Chinese, life is greater than freedom As a man Family is the most important. Collective interest is more important than personal interests . I think some Europeans are too selfish Sometimes I see some old European people who are really pathetic I met a Ukrainian female student in Hefei, Anhui Province She told me that Ukrainian men are too lazy So why is Ukraine poor now. I met some young tramps in Ukraine Only 30 to 35 years old. A good age .In fact, he also wants to work It's just that there are too few job opportunities in this country Ukrainians are actually friendly Probably the best European I've ever met.

Taiwan was still not strict enough, led to a large outbreak this year. Australia has been strict from the beginning of 2020, but still has an outbreak comparable with Taiwan. Macau has 4 local cases today, a large number for a small city. Mainland China has outbreaks now despite very strict measures. Some non serious local cases still exist despite strict measures in greater China.

There are very few people with alcohol problems in asian cities.
Asian cities have better climate except cities like Seoul, Beijing and Harbin have colder winters than Paris and London.
Unlike europe, all major coastal cities in east Asia are affected by typhoons.
