Is Vienna Safe for Women? Crime Rate & Safety Index

The city is quite safe. Of course, there are certain districts women shouldn’t walk around alone at night, but overall, it’s a very safe city. Also public transportation works until after midnight, there are cabs and many police stations.

Vienna is mostly really secure place! Just 2 or three areas like some parts of the 10th district … you have to take care during the night, but nothing to bad! Some strange man especially at metro stations may approach you, but just do not answer and they will leave you alone

I grew up in Vienna, I have experienced Vienna as a very safe City. Of course sometimes interesting strangers pass by your way. But never really something happens to me. I know some friends of mine who have experienced Vienna differently than I do. But all in all as a local you're safe. When I went out partying I always took the public transports back home alone and walked alone in the dark - no problem at all.

I have been staying in Vienna for not long. Usually I feel quite safe everywhere but I am very careful with arabian guys, because of catcalling etc. I walk alone at night, but I can’t say that I would feel all relaxed. Male figures in the darkness make me more alert anyways.

Generally a quite safe city and good public transportation (also at night). Of course it's still a big city so you just have to take care and be aware because you never know but over all you mostly feel safe there.

Vienna is a very safe city. Just be careful with using the Underground U6 in the night and avoid places like "Reumannplatz". Apart from this you will feel very safe throughout the whole city. I often walk Homepage alone at night and I am happy to tell that I never felt unsafe.

Vienna is very safe! I have no qualms about walking alone at night. In some areas at night you might get cat-called, but that’s about it. It’s great city for a first solo trip or for women who are a bit green. Not too many scammers, pickpockets, or things like that.

Most locations in Vienna are really safe, also alone and in the dark. I wouldn't wander around streets drunk after dark in the 10th district, but also there just going to the public transport is totally fine in the dark.

Vienna is generally safe, but it depends on the area. Don't walk alone in the 10th district after dark. Avoid Praterstern and Floridsdorf after dark as well. The first district is very safe. You might consider crossing the street if you encounter groups of people who appear to be of Arab or Turkish descent.

Vienna is a very safe city, I'm an athlete and often when it's warm I run in the area at night and I feel very safe, I also had wonderful experiences from night outs in the city, the city is full of wonderful people and the transport works very well, you can go anywhere which part of the city and feel safe! Usually, when I was alone, I always had help from local people and never had any problems! I recommend that you relax and enjoy the beautiful city of Vienna, both during the day and at night!

Solo travel

I love Vienna! It was my first solo journey and I’m so grateful for this experience!!! I felt completely safe there, that’s a city with amazing history, culture and food! I’ve spent not that much, because I like to travel cheap, so I ate mcdonalds and food from supermarket. I used couchsurfing for staying there, it was an amazing experience!!! My couchsurfer was a girl with amazing energy and we were talking a lot about our cultures. I’m in love with Albertina museum and I recommend you to visit it, it’s amazing! Transport aren’t expensive, so I liked it too

Group travel

Hi, I travelled with my friends there . Every well connected. Very safe even at night times. As always there were some weirdos but leaving them aside it was beautiful place. Lovely buildings. Felt it was too hot. Tasty food and water. Friendly people . Less expensive food when compared to Belgium. Excellent public transport.
