I Didn't Know São Paulo Was So Italian🇮🇹🇧🇷 (

São Paulo. The megacity of not just Brazil, but all of Latin America. If you're flying to Brazil, this is typically the only way in, and the only way out. I didn't quite know what to expect: we're used to hearing about favelas and robberies in the country, which leads one to imagine a disorganized city barely holding it together. That's not São Paulo. There's way more money here than you'd expect, and many parts looks as modern as anywhere else in the world. There's the largest Italian and Japanese diasporas in the world. It's a thriving city on the surface.
But as always, the truth is more complicated than that.

[@R.a.f.a.e.l.]

Like I said in another comment, the (bad) fame stuck with Sao Paulo due to the 80s and 90s. Sao Paulo was one of the most dangerous cities in Brazil back then. Many of us grew up or spent a good deal of our lives watching news about violence in Rio and Sao Paulo. It also helps that, due to the fact that its so big and a major economic hub, news related to violence in Sao Paulo are more often broadcasted to the whole country and this feeds the bias even further. But violence has declined sharply since then. The worst places in the country are, by far, in the North and Northeast of Brazil right now (when it comes to big cities). That doesn't mean Sao Paulo is completely safe, and also there are good and bad areas, but considering the country as a whole, São Paulo is a pretty solid place to be. I'm a brazilian and I always feel safe there. Just don't go flashing expensive smartphones around because that turns you into a target in any big city.

Man you have to visit Ilha Bela in São Paulo, that Island is part of the state of São Paulo, its just super safe and beautiful! Ive been there three times and saw people from all over the world there! Nature in Brazil is beautiful!

São Paulo has more Italians than Rome and it has the largest Italian community outside Italy .. Japanese , Lebanese etc

The same goes for Italy. São Paulo has the most Italians from any tother countries.

[@TMM-rk4gm]

it does indeed

[@gustavoroedel950]

Além de italianos e japoneses, o Brasil também foi o país que mais recebeu libaneses e sírios na história, mais do que os países árabes vizinhos, o que é impressionante: tem mais descendentes de libaneses no Brasil hoje do que tem de população no Líbano inteiro. O Brasil foi também o segundo país que mais recebeu alemães no mundo, só perdendo pros EUA.

São Paulo is the safest capital in Brazil by quite a big margin - the murder rate is around 4.6 for 100k, just about the same as New York. However, there are some neighbourhoods where it's more dangerous than literal warzones. Of course, those places are usually far away from places where people visit and most of the violence is between criminals or between the police and criminals. As a general rule, São Paulo is a safe city for tourists and residents and most people wanting to leave Brazil is mostly because of politics and how unpredictable things like economy really is. Not even downtown and Japantown where you visited is really all that dangerous, it looks seedy but it's just because is old and cluttered.

[@robertsants9820]

Segurança não se baseia apenas em homicídios. O que mais afeta a segurança da população são os assaltos, roubos ,furtos. E nisso SP não é nada seguro , nem aqui no no Interior do estado é. Ninguém se sente seguro sabendo que ao andar na rua pode parar um cara de moto com revólver apontado na sua cara, ou então com medo de abrir o portão de casa pra tirar o carro e se deparar com um marginal a espera pra te roubar. Nisso a capital SP é uma das cidades mais perigosas do Brasil , todo mundo anda na rua com medo de ser assaltado

Bro about the Airport, you went to another city on the countryside, outside the Capital. That's why it was so far away. You could've used the Guarulhos Airport one, so close, but it's normal for things like this to happen since you dont know the place here and it's huge

[@R.a.f.a.e.l.]

Maybe he picked it because the tickets were cheaper. I had to go through Viracopos a couple times due to the fact that it was A LOT cheaper. It's a long way, but it spared me more than 500 reais.

[@ghilliem.g.5824]

Some wrong information here, first off, São Paulo has a muder rate of 4.9, while New York has a murder rate of 5.5, the reason most people say its more dangerous than it actually is is because brazilians have a bad tendency of thinking and saying this country is way worse than it actually is, i think that is due to us being accustomed to hearing propaganda from other places that makes them sound and look better than they actually are. And also Viracopos is in the city Campinas, wich is also in the *state* of São Paulo, but is a diferent city with its own metropolitan region

[@rodrigohiphop]

Cara já desisti de brasileiro, aqui mesmo tem comentário denegrindo o RJ, o brasileiro não tem amor a si e ao país, e um dos motivos que o país e assim ate hoje politicamente, da vergonha alheia comentários em coisas gringas quando e algo sobre o Brasil, as vezes reclamo porque muito gringo faz vídeo com título em inglês sobre o Brasil e nem legenda em português coloca, mas pensando bem quando se ve certos comentários de pessoas que denigre o próprio país e expulsa turista, melhor nem ter mesmo pois poucos aqui entendem inglês.

@@rodrigohiphop concordo, essa síndrome de vira-lata do brasileiro me irrita muito. O país não é perfeito, nem de longe, mas também não é nem de longe tão ruim quanto o povo fala.

Se um líder ou governo quisesse aumentar a moral de uma nação, poderia, mas, um povo que não se da valor, não se importa com tratamento ruim, pois toma como o padrão.
