Hello.
I also live in the Waikiki area and I must admit that I am still concerned about security.
You should avoid going out alone in Waikiki at 23:00, especially if you are a woman, and I would not be at all surprised if you get into some
kind of trouble.
As has been written, there are also guns, and not a few crimes involving theft, robbery, and illegal drugs.


The ideal response would be to drive from work to the house parking lot
（ preferably inside security and off limits to outsiders ） if you must travel at night.
It may be difficult to bear the cost of a car just to get around Waikiki.
Also, to be realistic, avoid wearing clothes that would identify you as Japanese at a glance, do not travel alone, and
do not choose a type of house that can be easily entered from the outside.


Here is a site that reports on crime in Hawaii.
https://www.crimemapping.com/map/location/HONOLULU,%20Hawaii%2096817
You can also see what kind of crimes are common and what areas are prominent.


Hawaii is a relatively safe place in the U.S., but I think that you can protect yourself in the future if you are careful and
aware of the security situation before coming to the U.S., like SERINA. If you have any more problems, please do not hesitate to ask us.

It's not only in Waikiki, but it's better not to walk alone at night.
Even tourists are targeted, not just tourists ！.

Topix Hello.
What kind of job position do you have in Waikiki that ends at 11pm ？
I think you should tell the company you are working for.
I would not recommend a company that cannot ensure the safety of their employees.

Over 6 months ago, a woman was attacked while walking alone at 9pm in Ala Moana.
She said the attacker was fresh out of jail.

As everyone has said, don't walk alone at night.

I drive all my transportation.

It was an early morning job, not late at night, but a male colleague was attacked by thieves along the Ala Wai Canal on his way to work and was hospitalized as it was. After that incident, the company provided everyone with a burglar alarm, but some people had personally purchased pepper spray and other items. Early mornings and late nights are dangerous not only in Waikiki, but also in the condos and parking lots where you live.

I was suddenly shivved on Cuhio Street, and I broke my eye socket vs. my eye.
Of course, the criminal ran away and cried himself to sleep.
Of course, the criminal ran away and cried himself to sleep.
I've had my car vandalized 3 times, and my bike stolen twice.
Be careful whether you live here or are a tourist!

#8 Mr.

Are you okay ？ I was so surprised.
I wonder if you still live in Waikiki even if you suffered such damage. ？

I think it is easy to be mistaken for a tourist when you live in Waikiki.

There is no absolute safe Honolulu, but there are still many locals
I feel that areas closer to Waikiki, Diamond Head, Kapahulu, Kaimuki, McCully, Ala Moana are better.

I heard that the security in Waikiki has improved, but still small incidents
are happening.

I live in downtown Waikiki and I think it is safer
than before.

There are homeless, yes, but there are people who live there, so
there are still people around, even at night. Well, at midnight, it's like a stone.

But compared to before, around Hotel Street and Bishop Street, there is no problem until
10 o'clock at night.

Early in the morning ， and late at night you need to be especially careful ⚠️. I once had a friend at work who was riding his bike to work
to take tourists out to the islands (Maui,Hawaii) at 3am and was attacked, he woke up with blood on his head and didn't know how long he had been down.
A friend of mine was ambushed at the entrance square of a condominium, and the attackers fled in a car waiting for him, dragged and covered with scratches. According to the police, the perpetrator worked at waikiki at night
and after finishing his business, he now targets people in the early morning on his way home.
I myself got into a bag fight at a bus stop early in the morning, and when I thought the bag suddenly became lighter, he cut me with a knife and fled. When I called the police and got on a patrol car, I saw a man who looked like a homeless man in the park with a big bag at his feet. The policeman asked me if the bag belonged to me and I said no, it was in my bag
I had 10 bags on top of my bag. They have their own place. They have their own place and the law has been checked. So it's a mountain of them later. Since then
My cell phone is in my pocket and my pepper spray in my left pocket. A friend of mine had her bag with her lunch box in it taken. If someone tries to snatch your bag, just let go and give them a sense of satisfaction. Anyway, don't get hurt
. Not only at night, but also in the daytime around Donq.
Try a poketbell or anything to protect yourself ｡
If you have any good ideas to protect yourself, please let me know.

Women are no match for male criminals, so

do not wear a handbag, shoulder （ or shoulder sling ）.

Bags should be slanted （ cross-body ） or backpacks （ or backpacks ） to avoid being targeted.

I don't walk late at night or early in the morning and I only carry the above bags

I have lived in Hawaii for a long time and have never had a theft.

I get picked on more often than that - -''

A policeman friend of mine recommends: precautionary measures (for both men and women)

① don't carry a bag on the side of the road
Thieves also act in cars. It's also the guy who acts with two or more people and doesn't drive who is in charge of the snatch and grab.

② Walking fast
I'm not letting my guard down.

③ Don't scurry around, always pay attention to your surroundings
A casual gesture is important.　Thieves are animals, hunters. If you watch videos of animals, you will see the same thing. To avoid being prey, you have to be inconspicuous. Be on your guard. Scurrying is dangerous ！

④ Walk with your voice
Always be on standby and ready to speak. I recommend using an earpiece to make it look like you're on the phone or fighting on the phone, which will also keep weak-minded thieves away. If you look like you're having fun, it's not a good idea because it shows you're letting your guard down.
"Damn, I'm listening ？ You know ！ Ah ！ ！ ！" or some other jittery hand gestures. A weak voice is counterproductive.

⑤ Don't put anything important in your bag, but have at least $10 in cash ready to go.
Or a fake wallet.　Take this ！ to protect yourself.

⑥ Don't dress like a tourist
The only way to avoid being convicted in court is for the victim not to come to court. Therefore, non-locals are targets.　Choose to dress like a local and do not wear Japanese clothes to work.
Look at what the locals are wearing and imitate them.

⑦ Avoid eye contact. Do not make eye contact. If the worst comes to worst, don't be afraid to make eye contact. Squealing is just fuel for the fire.
