Safety in Saudi Arabia

Hi, We would like to talk about a sensitive but important topic: do you feel safe in Saudi Arabia? How would you define the level of safety in the country? Can you walk safely during the day and at night without any fear? Do you think there is a high rate of criminality, social problems or tensions? Share with us your insight on safety in Saudi Arabia and in the city you live in. Thank you in advance, Christine

If you want to know what crime really looks like, go live in South Africa.

Saudi very safe ! humm interesting subject / question .

Will from my own experience as expat or i might be more referred as ATCK (Adult Third Culture Kid) i can say Saudi arabia is one of the countries that safety will not be an issue , as the protection of society and the individuals have a great care from the government and you can visualise it by the number of rules they apply .

Worth to mention that every country has its own culture and customs and that should be known and understood from the visitors either for short or long period of stay which will help you to interact in more easier way with local people of that country .
