Oran is the second largest city in Algeria. It has beautiful beaches and European buildings in the city center, but other areas are poor. Most Oranian people are affected by the struggling economy. Oran is not the best, but it's not the worst either. It is a mid-sized city with mixed conditions. Hopefully, someday we can achieve a modern lifestyle like in Eastern countries.

Overall, the city is pretty safe, especially downtown but on the contrary, at night, it is not. As a local, I know where not to go at and what time to avoid problems. It is highly recommended for women to at least get a guide to show them around.
