It's one of the safest places in the world. The city and the rest of the country is extremely safe. There is very little crime and crime is almost non existent. Every crime makes news headlines there. Even minor crimes such as shoplifting and speeding and going through a red light make the news headlines there. Violent crime there is almost non existent and is never random and never occurs during robberies. The very little violence that occurs there always occurs between people that are known to each other. The last murder to happen there was 2012 which was 10 years ago. There hasn't been a murder there since. The country has gone 10 years without any murders. It is incredibly safe and it is extremely safe. A person living there or visiting there has nothing to fear and has nothing to worry about. It also so safe there that most people there never lock their doors.
