Yes, there is a reason why tourists are urged to exercise caution in South Africa, but the alarming reports one often finds online are vastly overblown.If you’ve lived in Johannesburg—fondly called Joburg or Jozi by the locals—you won’t leave with the crime rate foremost on your mind. Sorry I didn’t leave earlier than I did. Unless you’re an expat with millions. Rawalpindi is a whole lot worse than the Islamabad portion. Never had an issue and amazing place to live! About 9C and sunny this morning rising to 24C (this is mid-winter!!). Remember also that when the police static’s come out on murders they only list first degree murders and not all the others that take place daily. DO NOT underestimate the dangers in this country. 4 Cities from your home country (Baltimore, St. Louis, New Orleans, and Detroit) have higher murder rates than Johannesburg. *If you’re a nature and animal lover, escape the hustle of the city to Joburg’s surroundings where you can visit While Joburg might pale in comparison to its glitzier cousin Cape Town in terms of world-class restaurants, it nevertheless offers countless options for high quality, yet affordable dining.

@Mjava good points, apart from the USA comparison.

My apartment was robbed in broad daylight and the cctv footage shows they took their time.

We got to meet many children in a day care center & kindergarten as well as visiting several homes and sharing my wife’s birthday cake with a young woman who was also celebrating a birthday. What happened to democratic change that we all were looking forward to when Mandela was released? We unfortunately had to spend a day at a police morgue and I will never forget the amount of bodies being brought in and the smell ( because the electricity was turned off for hours). No travel alerts issued.

Anyway, played golf today on a world class course for about US$6.

The highlife of this part of our trip was spending a day in Soweto with a guide who knew everyone in the village & introduced us to dozens of residents. I don’t have the millions needed to emigrate to Australia or so on. If you’re adventurous, you can go off the beaten track on a graffiti walking tour, join the Joburg Photowalkers on a Sunday, or find a guide taking you into Alexandra, Johannesburg’s oldest (and most infamous) township.What strikes most visitors is Johannesburg’s youth and vibrancy.

Ples,” one of the most perfect pre-human skulls ever found.Yes, visitors should be careful and sensible while touring Johannesburg, especially at night and in unfamiliar places, much like any metropolitan area. Soon the prisoners vote may swing the vote to the party that takes care of them the best- How toxic is this? So I need to work more or study more for a wanted skill or just leave with nothing or look for positives here. Cape Town is expensive to live in..

You’re more likely to remember, with a sweet pang of regret, the weather.

Marginally less dangerous than Rio, but rio has terrible crime so this city is also bad crime issues.

to justify exclusion of whites which btw is exactly what apartheid did to blacks…. Black tribal society has broken down and we have many young black men fatherless and jobless a recipe for disaster and crime. Why cant we equip our youth with first class education so that they could lead us to success? The aforementioned perpetually malfunctioning robots do their part in further strangling the city’s main arteries to slow you down to a crawl most hours of the day.There is a lot to do and see in Johannesburg. Our beloved country is unfortunately rotting away as some leaders proudly want to steal from you with your eyes wide open.
They're that high because South Africans fantasise about standing out for bad stuff (you're reading this correctly non-South Africans) and actively and aggressively exaggerate.

I didn't know this and checked myself. Maybe you just haven’t seen it through all the smog which is not everyone’s idea of good weather!!!! Of course there is crime but just as bad in big american cities like Chicago, Miami and Detroit. Pretoria is an excellent option cleaner and safer.

But you have to be alive uninjured and happy and confident to do these things. Some of my most memorable experiences in Johannesburg occurred when I stepped out of my comfort zone and into places I was warned to never visit.Remember this: The biggest fear for most expats living in Johannesburg isn’t crime. The glaring lack of alerts issued for the country and it's cities (i.e. It’s one of the largest (and totally confusing) shopping centers I have ever seen. If we want to see an end to crime we must start by stopping all acts crime. Born bred and studied there. SA problem is ANC corruption and like someone said black tribal greed and showing off.

On your own its almost as if the zombies are coming for you. Really horrible place to live.

Add all this up plus a sense of black entitlement as mentioned before due to apartheid colonialism and soon they will bring in the biblical flood too….

This has the dual effect of artificially ballooning South Africa's positions while artificially 'deflating' the rank for almost every other entry. They're delighted with this, they want stuff like this to happen because they think it makes them look badass.

Otherwise not bad. Also poorer blacks have many children knowing they can’t afford to. Thank god i could leave but I feel so sorry for the good people there. Copyright © 2009-2020 Numbeo.
