Is there a lot of crime in Lima?

"Lima 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 city. The government has taken steps to address the issue, including increasing police presence in high-crime areas and implementing tougher laws. Despite these efforts, crime remains a major concern for many residents of Lima," remarked another expat in Lima, Peru.
