This chapter reports the results of two independent and non-identical surveys: one in Sweden and the other in India. They show unique evidence of women’s transit safety in rural contexts. While safety concerns can differ based on the particular location and its distinct features, the real-life experiences of women documented here offer fresh perspectives on their victimisation patterns and safety perceptions in rural areas. These insights can contribute to international scholarship aimed at enhancing understanding of women’s safety in these two distinct contexts.
