Sydney Warnings Or Dangers
 Sort by: Most Recent | Best Rated | Author's Order

King Cross: Kings Cross. Ho Bags and crack heads
  • Tip Rating:
  • Try and avoid Kings Cross, it's no more dangerous than any other red light district in the world but it's just plain ugly.

    Bucks nights, perverts, drug dealers, prostitutes, drunks, trannies, pimps and thieves.

    The train station is renowned for bag snatchings.
    Be sure not to photograph bikers without asking for their permission. It is a general rule of thumb to not photograph inside tattoo parlours also.
    There are much nicer places to go out in Sydney, but if it is dodgie night clubs full of drunk teenagers then this may well be your place.

    Bag snatching / Pickpockets etc: Redfern caution required
  • Tip Rating:
  • Sydney Bag snatching / Pickpockets etc
  • A bag snatch in Redfern
  • by cybergenic
  • Send Photo to a Friend
  • Redfern is one stop from Central Station. There have been some big conflicts there lately between local indigenous Australians and the police.
    Redfern has always had it's problems. Generally it is a safe area during the day but bag snatchings do occur often. Keep your wits about you and dont take your eyes off your belongings.
    Eveleigh Street should be avoided at all costs. This street is off limits to non Indigenous people. Police are not even allowed to enter this street. So as you can imagine, there is a lot of riff-raff on and around this block which incidentally is known as 'The Block'
