Is there a lot of crime in Penang?

Answer this Question

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

"No. We feel safe walking around day and night. With that said, we don't go out to bars in town at night or hang out in places like that," remarked another expat in Penang, Malaysia.

"Penang is generally considered to be a safe place to live and visit, with low levels of crime. However, as with any city, there are some areas where crime is more common, such as pickpocketing and petty theft. It is important to be aware of your surroundings and take precautions when travelling in unfamiliar areas," said a member in Penang, Malaysia.
