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

"Belgium generally has a low crime rate, with most crimes being non-violent. However, there has been an increase in violent crime in recent years, particularly in the larger cities. Drug-related crime is also a problem in Belgium, with the country being a transit point for drugs entering Europe. Additionally, Belgium has seen an increase in cybercrime, with criminals using the internet to commit fraud and other financial crimes," said another expat in Belgium.
