Crime is concentrated in certain cities/states and countries. Peru for instance is a very safe country with a very low homicide rate (much lower than the US) despite being poorer than the state of Rio de Janeiro. The city of São Paulo is quite safe, I mean you need precautions as in any big metropolis but it's comparable to any major American metro area. And the Southern Cone is all safe, you can walk on the streets of Buenos Aires and Santiago at night without being afraid of nothing.
You don't need to move to Fortaleza or San Pedro Sula in Honduras.

Yeah I mean I do this in Chicago. Doesn't apply to the whole city obv but in the better neighborhoods you really can just walk around at night without worrying about shit. The crime is unironically extremely regional.
Chile as a whole has a lower crime rate than Uruguay and similar as Argentina, but ever since the "estallido" in 2019 there has been a crime spike in the capital, Santiago. I wouldn't discount the hundreds of thousands of immigrants (Venezuelans and Haitians) who entered Chile in the past few years as well.

I see the poors are pretending to be big wallet niggas again est. 2016
Hello, welcome to 'I see the poors are pretending to be big wallet gangstas again'
This hole exists as a safe space for refugees from the Facebook(MetaTM groups of the same name. Of which there have been several iterations. We mostly exist to poke fun at the state of living in poverty. While it oftentimes is unavoidable, we do aspire to not be meanspirited. Over the years we have co-opted the term 'Peak Poor' to being someone who exudes poverty, regardless of their actual net worth. Trump and Elon both exhibit the peak poor ethos from time to time while still being the top 0.000001%. You can do something peak poor and still be a good person or a generally adjusted one. We all have a bit of poor in us.
We basically fill a niche similar to fatpeoplehate with a bit less actual malice.
PeakPoor is shotgunning mountain dews at 5 years old.
PeakPoor is not people dying of poverty. While technically the greatest heights of poverty is succumbing to it this is not funny, and is a failure
of capitalism. We do not make fun of poverty to be mean spirited such as that.
Read the room, if it's punching down too hard or really digging into someone whos a sympathetic character it doesn't belong here. (basically READ THE ROOM)
Sitewide rules apply
other rules
Subscribe to this hole, it's important that we get our numbers up. Love numbers = peak poor
Bonus points for making your post title some variation of peak poor. (Pinnacle of Poverty, Prowess of the Penniless)
I am looking for a mod who will help me grow this place and encourage the facebook community where the majoryity of our members reside
to migrate. Contact me if interested.
I really do love you all so very much, i'm even spending drama coin to get some banners and marseys. thanks for being a part of the community.

Why is Chile's crime rate slightly higher than Argentina or Uruguay's?

Are there really Haitians? I knew there were Venezuelans committing crime but who in their right mind would let Haitians in.

Yes, they let around 180k haitians in lmao, all within a few years in the 2010s.
Many left though, remember that migrant caravan in the US border?
Many of those guys were living in Chile and they found their Chilean IDs they had thrown near the Rio Grande.
