Is there a lot of crime in Malaga?

Answer this Question

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

"Malaga, like any other city, experiences some level of crime. However, it is generally considered a safe city, especially for tourists. The most common crimes reported are petty thefts, such as pickpocketing, particularly in crowded areas and public transportation. Violent crimes are relatively rare, and the city has a strong police presence. The local authorities are proactive in maintaining safety and security. Nevertheless, it is always advisable for residents and visitors to take standard precautions to protect their personal belongings and safety," remarked another expat in Malaga, Spain.
