Acinetobacter baumannii is a well‐known nosocomial pathogen that has been isolated from different clinical sources. This pathogen also causes community‐acquired infections, with mortality rates as high as 64%. The exact natural habitat of this bacterium is still unknown. In this study, we investigated the prevalence of A. baumannii in diverse soil and high‐touch surface samples collected from a university campus, malls, parks, hypermarkets and produce markets, roundabout playground slides and bank ATMs.
