🛡️ Safety & Crime
(Higher is safer)
(Lower is safer)
Hyosha presents significant safety challenges for expats. With a Numbeo Safety Index of 10/100, violent crime, armed robbery, and theft are serious concerns. The DRC's ongoing instability, limited police presence, and economic desperation create an environment where expats are frequently targeted. Avoid displaying wealth, traveling after dark, and moving through unfamiliar neighborhoods alone. Medical emergencies and civil unrest can escalate quickly with minimal government response. This city is not recommended for most American expats seeking a stable retirement or remote work base.
