In the world that we live in, violent crime is an unfortunate reality.<\/strong> If you\u2019re looking to move to another city or another country, one of the key things that you should be mindful of are the crime statistics of the area you\u2019re looking to call home. Keep in mind that no place is completely safe,<\/strong> but it\u2019s good to know what to expect when exploring a new area, especially if there are precautions<\/strong> that should be taken.
\nBefore we get into the details, though, let\u2019s answer the title question: is it safe to live in Luanda? Yes and no,<\/strong> and we\u2019ll explain why.<\/p>\n

Muggings, Robberies, and Carjackings<\/h2>\n

As of 2019, there are over 8 million people living in the Luanda metro area. There is an extreme inequality<\/strong> that exists between the wealthy minority and the rest of the city\u2019s inhabitants. This makes a recipe for financially-motivated<\/strong> violent crime. Muggings and robberies<\/a> are sadly common in Luanda, especially in areas frequented by visitors and tourists. When traveling through the city, even during the day, it\u2019s important that you don\u2019t show<\/strong> off jewelry, watches, or any other valuables. Smartphones are popular targets with thieves, so it\u2019s a good idea to keep yours tucked away.<\/p>\n

Be especially careful<\/strong> when withdrawing money from an ATM<\/a> or bank, as these are frequent hot spots for robberies. Criminals in Luanda will even target slow-moving vehicles, so if you\u2019re traveling by car and find yourself in traffic, follow the same rules as you would on foot: keep valuables hidden.<\/p>\n

Anyway you look at it, the crime rate is high in Luanda, especially when it comes to theft. However, that doesn\u2019t mean<\/strong> you can\u2019t safely live in the city<\/a>. It all depends on where you\u2019re living.[\/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space][vc_single_image image=”77558″ img_size=”large” alignment=”center”][vc_empty_space][vc_column_text]<\/p>\n

The Bad Side of City<\/h2>\n

Like all major cities, different areas<\/strong> of Luanda offer different levels of safety. Using Los Angeles as an example, you\u2019d be perfectly safe walking around Glendale, but walking around Compton would be a different story. At the end of the day, though, it\u2019s all Los Angeles.<\/p>\n

So is it Safe to Live in Luanda?<\/h2>\n

The same goes for Luanda. The crime written about above only applies to certain parts<\/strong> of the city, namely the downtown area. However, if you were to get a house or an apartment in Luanda Sul, Miramar, Nova Vida, or another safer<\/strong> neighborhoods in the city. You would likely be perfectly safe. The apartment buildings and housing compounds in these areas are very secure<\/strong> and usually employ security staff to keep out any sort of trouble.<\/p>\n

So yes, it\u2019s very safe to live in Luanda<\/strong>, provided you\u2019re living in the right<\/strong> place. After all, there are hundreds of thousands of expats living<\/a> there and more making the move every year. If living in Angola were too dangerous, that simply wouldn\u2019t be the case.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
