Well those are both considered white countries.

South Africa= 9% White, 80% Black
I'd probably pick South Africa myself.

You must be crazy south africa? the government decided some 4 years ago that a moratorium was needed on crime statistics for a 10 year period. I think from memory and this was some 6 years ago, that there were over 100.000 reported rapes in south africa and thats reported. The country is so damn violent that they formed their own domestic SAS unit to tackle the daily shootouts, kidnappings and armed robberies that take place. Not to mention that the government is led by a bunch of communists who think that ethnic cleansing of white people is alright as long as it is done subtly, unlike the zimbabwe example.

I live in the USA, so South Africa could actually be an improvement when it comes to crime. ;D Violent crimes is actually decreasing in South Africa. Rape is high and good luck not having your car jacked. But South Africa is a beautiful country. It's major cities, culture, landscape, (South Africa has about 10% of all the known species of plants on Earth) is amazing. It's economy is decent, positioning it among the top 50 in the world. My 4 uncles all lived in South Africa for a couple years, and they all loved it there.

i understand where you are coming from but south africa is far more violent than america particularly when you realise the population is about a tenth of the size also. However as for the rest of what you said, there is no denying its a beautiful place and the economy is doing well over there, however 2 friends of mine and a colleague from work have lived over there also and they were equally enthusiastic when it came to the beauty of the country but said they always lived in fear. As soon as the one guy became a father, he knew it was time to leave not the type of place where you want a kid growing up. However I think you are probably safe on the rape, save for homo rapists ;D
