safety in Cambodia

[BananaBandit]

I've only ever spent a few days in Cambodia. But it was enough to see that Phnom Penh seems a bit dodgier than most cities on mainland SEA. 

 

I've read quite a few reports of Westerners getting robbed/assaulted in Phnom Penh. And I realize that some of those casino towns — Bavet, Poipet, Sihanoukville — have some seriously sketchy people. 

 

But what about the less hedonistic places — Battambang, Kampot, Rattanakiri, Stung Treng, etc. Are these places where foreigners get attacked for their stuff?

Also Koh Kong seem safe to me. All towns worth visiting or living

Stay alert, watch your phones, don't carry more than you need.

 

Watch your environment. I walked all over Phnom Penn city.

Don't walk with your phone in your hand, that's for sure
