Chiang Mai - Post Report Question and Answers
Are there personal security concerns to be aware of at this post? Please describe.
Really no personal security concerns. Chiang Mai is an extremely safe town. Many people don't even lock their doors here! - Mar 2019
Chiang Mai feels very safe. I do know a number of people whose houses have been robbed, but by petty thieves rather than hardened criminals. Weapons were never involved. The Thai culture is not a violent one. Pickpocketing is uncommon. Carjacking is unheard of. - May 2007
