Is there a lot of crime in Davao?

"There are scams in bars, and some places I would not walk at night. I avoid the Muslim areas. I am not easily intimidated. Foreigners cannot own guns. But my wife can. Our house has very effective perimeter security," explained one expat living in Prudential Village, Daliao, Davao City, Philippines.

"Davao City in the Philippines is generally considered to be a safe place to live and visit. The city has a low crime rate compared to other cities in the Philippines, and the local government has implemented a number of measures to ensure the safety of its citizens. The city has a strong police presence and a number of security measures in place, such as CCTV cameras and a curfew for minors. The city also has a number of initiatives in place to help reduce crime, such as community-based programs and education campaigns," said another expat in Davao, Philippines.
