How safe is Salvador?

Security in Salvador is not the best, you need to be careful especially at popular parties. If you are a woman, do not go to parties alone, always be in a group or accompanied by someone. Walking on the streets is not dangerous, but you need to be careful with your belongings, avoid leaving your cell phone and wallet in pockets or easily accessible.
