Is there a lot of crime in Porlamar?

Answer this Question

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

"Well, with the financial climate the way it is you need to be careful with what you carry around with you. There are lots of telephone robberies and bag snatchings. I have lost 2 car batteries in front of the house because I was careless. Other than that, there are not many problems," said another expat in Porlamar, Venezuela.

"Porlamar has seen an increase in crime in recent years. The city has experienced a rise in violent crime, including robberies, assaults, and homicides. Drug trafficking and organized crime are also a problem in the area. The Venezuelan government has taken steps to address the issue, but the situation remains a concern for residents and visitors alike," wrote a member who made the move to Porlamar, Venezuela.
