Is there a lot of crime in Thailand?

"Thailand is generally seen as a safe country, but crime does exist and can be a problem in certain areas. Petty crime like pickpocketing, purse snatching and the theft of unattended items is the most common type of criminal activity reported in Thailand, whilst more serious crimes such as drug trafficking, robbery, fraud and domestic violence are also reported across the country. In some areas, violent crimes have become more common, so it is wise to remain cautious and take sensible safety precautions," wrote a member who made the move to Thailand.

"No, very little crime, but you have to keep a eye out for the motor bike taxi's. You should not carry a wallet, but instead carry a bag over your shoulder and make sure it is hanging in front of you. Keep your cell phone inside this bag also. Don't make it easy for the anyone to steal from you. Only use ATM'S at the inside of banks, not out on the street," explained one expat living in Nonthaburi, Thailand.
