   >  Fly to Brazil, take a cab around Central Sao Paulo.

Better yet, don't.

source: Am Brazilian, would not recommend it.

To be fair, Central São Paulo isn't even what I would consider third world yet, if you really wanna see how good some of us have it go to the northeast of Brazil, or Venezuela (if you manage to get in somehow).

Getting into Venezuela is easy, getting back out again is the hard part.

Central São Paulo isn't all that bad. It's slightly off-center that is really bad.

And no, you will only find similar stuff at Rio de Janeiro. Fortaleza and Recife have small areas that come close, but the real bad of urban violence is on the southeast.

In the grand scheme of things, even rural-ish northeast Brazil is not thaaat bad. Venezuela though... oh boy.

The northeast is amazing. I wanted to give a simple example.
