I'm interested in visiting Rome, but I'm a bit worried about safety. How does safety in Rome compare to other large cities such as London, New York, etc? I'm not overly bothered about pickpocketing and other similar petty crime, but how common is it for people to actually get mugged in Rome, or other similar violent attacks? I'm not stupid, and do keep myself to myself and am careful when carrying valubles, but how much of a risk is this in the day, in populated areas? I'm 17, male and intending to visit alone.
