Thousands of women and gender experts questioned for a Thomson Reuters Foundation poll released Tuesday reported the highest levels of physical harassment were on Latin America's public buses, trains and subways.
South and East Asia also broke into the top 10 least safe transport systems, with New Delhi at number 4, Jakarta number 5, Kuala Lumpur number 7, Bangkok number 8, and Manila number 10.
At number 9, Moscow is the worst European capital.
New York was deemed the safest of the 16-city selection, followed by Tokyo, Beijing, and London.
The poll omitted five of the largest capitals - Cairo, Dhaka, Kinshasa, Tehran and Baghdad - because of challenges in gathering data.
