So many negative nellies out there, earning prospective ex pats to stay away. I have been and stayed in Kiskeya multiple times amd planning a final move with kids and hubby next year. Some parts pf the island are riskier than others
Just like anywhere, look where you step
It's no better or worse than other places with congested urban areas. The worse to worry about is traffic and staying safe on the road. The rural areas are safer and beautiful to live in.
My advice to complainers, vet involved with the local community and be constructive instead of complaining. And if you hate it so much, there are flights to anywhere, every day. It is not your country, rrspect the people and culture or leave.
