Is there a lot of crime in Cebu?
We asked people if there is a lot of crime. They answered...
"Cebu is generally considered a safe city, however, like any other city, there is some crime. Petty theft, such as pickpocketing and bag snatching, is the most common type of crime in Cebu. Other crimes, such as robbery, assault, and drug-related offenses, are also reported, but are less common. The city has a visible police presence, and the government has implemented a number of initiatives to reduce crime," explained one expat living in Cebu, Philippines.
