There are 2 issues, single or married. I have visited a few smaller cities and they all appear similar. I live outside of Rio in a large city. The city is not pretty but everyone works and is respectful. Some people have money and some dont. I walk all over the city and never feel uncomfortable. At night we usually dont walk around only because my wife is afraid. I have walked and felt no problem. Where I live nobody speaks English. Once and awhile I meet a student who knows very basic English. I blend in but once I sepeak everyone knows im American. Usually this is a nice thing but when negotiating with store owners they always try to up the price. Most people are pro-American for our people, our music, electronics, cars, and tv. Most everyomne I meet wants to visit the US and all want t learn English. Back to the answer. Rio is a good place for a single person but for a family I think the outer subs. The dollar is the issue, but even at 1-1 I think Brazil is a better value for necessities. For luxuaries, ex. computer, electronics, cars, they are expensive but many stores allow you to pay 10-20 x or more with no intrist.
