10. Caracas, Venezuela
The capital of Venezuela is Caracas. It is one of the most dangerous cities in the Americas. High inflation, political instability, and shortage of basic commodities have led to unrest and violent crime. Car thefts, kidnappings, and armed robberies are rampant here.
This place tops the global murder list. Criminal groups frequently operate along the Venezuela-Colombia border carrying out illicit activities including smuggling, drug trafficking, and black market sales. There is a risk of extortion and kidnapping in the area within 20 kilometers of Colombia.
