Yes I guess but then by the same token most of the UK has a considerably higher burglary rate than NSW - and the point I was making was that Australia does not have the "worst burglary in the western world by miles" as whoever it was said - it has a comparable one with UK at worst.

Is this something to worry about....

Yes Perth is absolutely shit! Don't come here unless you want to be stabbed, burgled or even murdered!

Now there's an idea for the next Australian Horror Movie - sure to be a Box Office Smash!

I do enjoy laughing at you people on the forums, some of the rubbish that is said is unbelievable.

I use the train every day, sometimes late at night and sometimes very early in the morning. I have never had a problem here in Perth. I am often in the city center late at night and never had a problem.

Sure there are some dodgy people around but if you dont bother them they dont bother you, just like anywhere in the world.

I think people just like to talk crap on forums but it can give people a false impression on what life in perth is really like

Yep.....I found it exactly the same when I lived in the UK.

.....but you wouldn't believe it if you listened to all the rubbish spouted on here about the UK.

Do I detect just the slightest hint of sarcasm?.

St.Georges Girl

Yes, if you are a worry wart and worry about the same things where ever you live.

Dorothy

Sarcasm? From NorthernBird? Never!

Dont forget feeling suicidal because it's so isolated you feel lonely all the time...
