In the end, forgetting the fact you are basing Darul Takzim's crime rate on just JB (as u haven't shown any evidence you've commented on other towns in ur biga55 state) - & since Sg is beside Johor/JB as u say, it is easy for troopers/politicians to use your state as scaremongering tactic to drive away your Sg investors/visitors as much as possible. Until the opposition gets their foot in their door there.

But you are not helping yourself - sorry I mean, ur city.
Cos as you've first asked for stats (which is usually full of sh1t in terms of Msia's civil service biased reporting to begin with) - then you go and agree with the other posters that ur city's (not state's) security is lame.
Ok. So a state's security that's so lame according to a resident of it's capital and nearest inhabitant of a foreign country. Cool.

Your OP title, and still = "Is it safe or not?"
Stop changing goalposts to constantly act dumb and ask respondents ..."but is it the unsafest/worst safety?" etc etc.

Live with it.
If you want ur Iskandar zone thing to work, you better accept it won't unless u make some noise to improve safety concerns for FOREIGN investors/tenants/buyers.
Local Msians wont give a fuk - but they are not the target market of that region for the most of the purchases.
And as long as people keep giving Johor's sh1tty crimerates headlines over & over.. then the biggest loser is the optimum development of that (potentially promising) Iskandar Zone/Region.

Well said. No intention to diss TS, but ostrich-head-in-sand moments does not help.
Just think where one is in Sg Petani or in Tebrau - if you have taken all common sense measures to ensure your safety/wellbeing from crime, but still kena crime, then areas where u kena more than usual will usually come out in the open.
