Staying safe in the city is very important. As many other cities in El Salvador La Libertad is highly populated but unlike San Salvador it has a lower crime rate.

The basic rules are:

• Don't wear expensive jewerly.
• Don't hang out in places where it looks abandoned.
• If you rent a car don't rent a luxirious car.

It's the basics but other than that you will remain safe and will be a great enjoyment to you and whoever you are traveling.
