Is there a lot of crime in Kuala Lumpur?

Answer this Question

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

"Kuala Lumpur is generally considered to be a safe city, however, there is still some crime. Petty theft, such as pickpocketing and bag snatching, is common in crowded areas, particularly around tourist attractions. Violent crime is relatively rare, but it does occur. It is important to be aware of your surroundings and take precautions to protect yourself and your belongings," mentioned another expat when asked about moving to Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia.
