Anyone ever see any shady stuff going on in GZ? I read that daylight robberies aren't rare and that you won't receive help from crowds if you're getting mugged.

It's safe. Exercise basic common sense as you would in any other major city and you'll be fine. I know lots of people who live there, and have been myself, and I've never heard of a daylight robbery, and it felt just like any other Chinese city, ie. blissfully safe.
