Is there a lot of crime in Busan?

Answer this Question

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

"Busan, like any other major city, experiences some level of crime. However, compared to other cities of similar size, the crime rate in Busan is relatively low. The city is generally considered safe, with violent crimes being rare. Most common crimes are petty ones such as pickpocketing or minor theft, particularly in crowded areas or tourist hotspots. South Korea as a whole has a strong focus on maintaining law and order, and Busan is no exception. The city has a visible police presence, and there are numerous safety measures in place, such as CCTV cameras throughout the city. However, it's important to note that while crime rates are low, they are not non-existent. Visitors and residents alike should still exercise common sense and take basic precautions to protect their personal safety and belongings. In recent years, there has been an increase in cybercrime, including online scams and identity theft. This is a growing concern for authorities and efforts are being made to combat this issue. In conclusion, while Busan does experience crime, it is generally considered a safe city with a low crime rate," wrote a member who made the move to Busan, Korea.
