Brazil has gotten a bad rap recently, with many issues of severe poverty being broadcast around the world. While there are certainly areas that you should not go, these are mainly sections of major cities, such as Rio de Janeiro. You should be sure to know what area you are staying in and what areas to stay away from before you go. By being aware of your surroundings and the current social atmosphere in the city, your stay should be safe.
