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

"The overall crime rate in Switzerland is relatively low. Switzerland is seen as a relatively safe place to live, with the emphasis being on the prevention of crime. Despite this, certain cities and regions may have higher crime rates than others, particularly areas where there is a higher level of immigration. As a result, some locals may feel uneasy or even unsafe if they're outside at night in certain neighborhoods," explained one expat living in Switzerland.
