Is Santo Tomé safe for families during the night?

Santo Tomé is generally considered a safe city for families. Crime rates are lower than in larger urban centers, and most incidents are petty theft or vandalism. Neighborhoods with higher foot traffic and community patrols tend to have fewer incidents. It is still wise to avoid poorly lit streets after dark and to keep valuables out of sight. Local police patrols are active in commercial areas, and community watch groups often organize neighborhood meetings to discuss safety.
