Is Brussels Safe for Women?

Not the safest city, I can say very dangerous even during the day, not only one time I was asked by guys during the walk home at evening “do you wanna go to my house, what if you have a boyfriend?” ; not only one time my phone was about to be stolen; not only one time I was harassed by bums in metro for not giving them money …

Brussels is a relatively safe city, but its the capital of both Belgium and Europe, so there is a certain level of crime. The past few months tensions have been high in the centre due to daily protests for Palestina, 2 stbbings happened in 2 weeks. There are some places near Bruxelles Midi where drugscriminals rule, but all in all Brussels is not a city i would qualify as dangerous as loads of US cities. Inform yourself, stay safe and you will have a wonderful time

I went to Brussel some times and i didn't feel like in a safe place. I saw drug dealer sold their drugs in front of the police. Some guys whistled at me and approached inappropriately in the street. The entire city is not like that i know it. But now i feel a bit stressed when i go there.

It s depends on the place where you havé to be careful , but in général We feel so safe. You can always have to be careful. People are Nice, We can talk to People easily. You can visit the city in peace without judgment.

Well some part of Brussels is safe, but some others are not safe especially for women, and mostly during the night. All around the train station it’s absolutely not safe to walk around there, at night especially. But I would say that if you take care and stay in the nice places of Brussels it’s a pretty nice and nice place.

Solo travel

Brussels is an amazing city, so lively full of different culture and people. Everyone speaks English but the avarege life is pretty expensive especially the food. I will suggest to visit the Art Noveau houses and the gardens (there are many and all amazing). It's actually a pretty safe city but still be careful walking alone at night.
