Medium. While generally safe during daylight hours, 'one-chance' incidents (where criminals pose as public transport operators) can occur, particularly for solo travelers or late at night. Pickpocketing is also common in crowded bus stops and inside buses. Always be vigilant and avoid displaying valuables.
