I lived many years here and nothing happen to me. I really feel safe a lot of the time, but I always be careful. Dont walk distracted, and look around you, dont use headphones at the night. Dont talk with homeless or strangers and you will be okay

The city I live in is very safe, I’ve never been robbed or anything. In here we walk with our phones on our hands. I don’t use public transport, only uber or my own car. The neighborhood i live in is very safe and calm.

I usually move around the city center in my bike or walking and I never faced any issues. Compared to bigger cities, I feel that Joinville is pretty safe. I usually come back home from work or class when is already dark and I don't feel unsafe on the streets.
