Is Baku Safe for Women? Crime Rate in Baku

Baku is very safe, I walk around at night all the time and never felt not safe. Guys do not approach you or cat call you. Also public transport is safe to ride as well as taxi. So, woman should not be afraid of walking around alone.

I walked around in the evening, never got catcalled or even uncomfortable stares, felt very safe even in the small streets of the old town. People seem very caring especially about women travelling alone.

I would say the city is very safe and I usually come home at night times, after 10 o’clock, to 1 am. And I would say I didn’t experienced anything except 1 time. An unknown car stopped and waited for me at 12, but I ran away. So l just suggest you to be cautious and careful, otherwise l wouldn’t worry much.

My country is soo safe for everyone.Women can go outside after dark alone,no one couldn’t disturb you.Baku very famous with night lights in the streets,you can enjoy every corner after 7-8 o’clock(for example Highland Park)

Baku is totally safe city for its local people and foreigners too. İt s the way too quiet and normal city i d say, the situation here is very safe. İ mean there wont be anybody who even talks to u and trying to make u discomforted after dark in Baku streets if u r specially a foreigner.

İn Baku it depends on where do you stay. If you stay in center you are 90% safe but back street this percentage falls to In our culture, there is a lot of respect for women. You can see a lot of positive discrimination here, but the biggest benefit of this is that you feel safe. No one will do anything to you outside and you can go out in the evenings comfortably, but you still need to be careful in the back streets. In the past, there might not have been this warning, but now there are some places where drug use has increased, and they are more in the back streets, such as Alatava and Ïcəmi. In other words, it is generally a safe city and no one dares to do anything even in those back streets because there are a lot of police.

Family travel

Its indeed very disappointing to say that baku is not at all safe for women at night specially women who are travelling alone. Every men around you is obnoxious and would stare you as if he is going to rape you. Day 1 till day 5 most of the men i met were very vile and bad and all they would look at you as if they would rape you even try to eve tease you and if you revolt back they would make sure you learn a lesson for pointing out the inadequate behaviour of men towards you.

Solo travel

Best food in the Caucasian region. I felt completely safe all the time, the people are awesome and friendly! So many things to see, I loved the carpet museum the most, but the Mini Dubai feeling is incredible too!
