Is there a lot of crime in Amman?

Answer this Question

We asked people if there is a lot of crime. They answered...

"Amman, the capital city of Jordan, is generally considered to be a safe city with relatively low crime rates. However, like any other urban area, it is not completely free from crime. Petty crimes such as pickpocketing, bag snatching, and theft can occur, particularly in crowded areas and tourist hotspots. Additionally, there have been occasional reports of scams targeting tourists and expatriates. Violent crimes are less common in Amman, but they do occur occasionally. It is important for residents and visitors to remain vigilant and take necessary precautions to ensure their safety. This includes avoiding poorly lit areas at night, not displaying valuable items, and being cautious when using public transportation. Overall, Amman is a relatively safe city, but it is essential for individuals to remain aware of their surroundings and take necessary precautions to minimize the risk of becoming a victim of crime," wrote a member who made the move to Amman, Jordan.
