Naples - Post Report Question and Answers

Are there personal security concerns to be aware of at this post? Please describe.

Pickpockets and bag snatchers are in the touristic areas, around the train stations, in the trains, the airports, and the public transports. They seem to be aggressive and agile.

Car and motorcycle traffic: Italians seem to drive very aggressively and impatiently, with little regards to driving regulation. It seems they call or text on their cellphone while driving. It is easy to get into an accident. - Oct 2018


Yes. You do have to be careful. Everywhere. - Sep 2017


Crime rate is very high. Various Camorra (Mafia) clans control the city. Street crime (muggings, purse snatching) is common, as are break-ins. Another security concern is surviving the way people drive here. - Jul 2009
