I didnt get very good impressions of Taipei. There are a lot of groups that were looking at me. One of them tried to accost me in one of the bars in front of a police patrol, i had to leave.

I am surprised that there is a good opinion on the site about the city when an ordinary girl can be attacked. I cant wait for China to take over Taiwan and fix that mess.

Taiwan is very underrated and it is muchsafer than Japan and South Korea.

In Japan and South Korea there's more sexual harrassment towards women but in Taiwan it's very low.

I went to Taiwan in 2019, a few months before covid and it was a very safe and peaceful place. Not a single person trying to scam, harass, or mug me even in large cities like Taipei. Locals just mind their own business and would rather help than steal from you. Their public transport, particularly the metro and trains are world class too. Taiwan is up there with Japan and S.Korea in terms of safety

I filed my taxes for this year. I'm getting back $585.00 from federal and $218.00 from the state.

Disregard my previous comment I was acting like an idiot. Taiwan is an amazing place to live!

John Adamford on Jan 26, 2023:

Numbeo is a joke and the Taiwanese trolls on here trying to make it seem like it's the safest place in the world are hilarious. Can't wait for Taiwan to be inevitably retaken by China.

Chris Chang on Jan 16, 2023:

Taiwan is not part of communist China and has nothing to do with communist China. Please stand up for Taiwanese and help us to stop the bully from China.

I'm Taiwanese from the "country" of Taiwan. I'm going to contribute the information~:D
Taiwan is really safe and convenient, and it is also known called food/fruit paradise.
none the less to say, people here are very friendly~
and if you want to study mandarin, Taiwan is a best choice to stay~

Been travelling in more than 60 countries, i am honestly telling that Tiawan is really a paradise. Walking dogs at night time,
having food somewhere at midnight around the city can be so convenient and safe. Taiwan is safer than Japan

Carlos on Jul 30, 2022:

I’ve been living in Taiwan for 10 years, after long stays in several other European countries. Taiwan is really a paradise on Earth in terms of security. Taiwan is an example for this world with its education, kindness, respect, tradition and patriotism.

Gang violence is huge in Taiwan. Taipei does just a bit better at organized crime than the rest of Taiwan.
