Top 10 Most Dangerous Cities In Africa

Several of Africa’s expanding big cities are simultaneously becoming more vulnerable to crime as the continent continues to offer increasing numbers of chances for employment and interesting places to solo travel south africa. Furthermore, there is still a lot of racial tension and xenophobic violence (violence motivated by fear of those who are different from oneself) in places like South Africa, where apartheid (the country’s legal practice of racial and ethnic segregation from 1948 to 1994) was once a deeply entrenched practice.

We have ranked some of the most hazardous cities in Africa using the sets of crime indices Numbeo.com has developed to compare worldwide cities based on relative levels of crime, safety, law, and order.

Numbeo’s multi-factorial analyses take into account factors like people’s perceptions of the area’s crime levels, recent changes in crime levels, the safety of walking alone, fears of muggings or robberies, vehicle security, the perceived threat of assault and/or battery, being irritated, harassed, insulted, or solicited by locals, racial, ethnic, and religious intolerance, and the threat of property theft. In many cases, the US Overseas Security Advisory Council’s (OSAC) designation of these locations as “critical” in terms of crime confirms the relatively high danger levels in these places. Here are some of the most hazardous cities in Africa today for residents to live in, tourists to visit, and businesses to undertake.
