I feel most people are nice here. I recommend the mountain Schöckel. As a Chinese I’m not used to eating traditional food in Graz but Italian restaurants never disappointed me. Every meal cost about 10-30 Euro. I rent a room for 500 Euro a month because i have to work here for one year

Graz is really safe and beautiful city. I am living it in here for 2 months and i am happy in here. If you want to travel around city you should use bikes. It is way easier and cheap way of doing it. I think you will enjoy here!

I think as a local, that Graz is very safe, only at Night in some Parks you Need to take care of drugdealers. The Area around postgarage is a Little Bit creepy as a Woman.

Graz is pretty safe there are some areas like Gries and Lend and around the main train station that arent as safe at night but comparable with other cities its still safer there! Just dont get into any altercations and try not to talk to the people at main train station at night

I would say it‘s really safe. I walked home in the middle of the night so many times and never had any problems or felt unsafe. I mean it also depends on where you are but I haven’t felt unsafe.
