Is Santiago Safe for Women? Crime Rate in Santiago

Santiago is in overall a pretty safe city . Just like any city in South America you gotta be precautious of course , don’t get your phone out in crowded places , don’t walk alone at night ect… to be honest I feel like there can lot of robberies here , but assault and violation is really not that much of a thing here .

Im think its a safe city but you have to be careful, if you walk alone in the night its a risk in some dangerous places but if you walk in a secure place like las condes, providencia it’s less probable to be expose to some crime

Fairly safe as long as you dont go looking for trouble. Its easy to be stupid and find trouble even in the safest of countries or cities. Yes there is danger of getting your phone swiped etc, but gender specific violence is not common, esp when you are a foreigner

You have to take care while being alone on the streets but in a group you’ll be much safer. There are certain areas that would be not recomended to go, even in a group or during the day. I would also recomend to look as not turist as you can.

it’s safe but depends on which part of the town you are, closer to the center its considerably less safe, being a woman i wouldn’t feel safe walking alone at night at all and during the day its really possible for you to get mugged, in other places of santiago (like las condes or vitacura) its much safer

Santiago depends on the area. I recomend , keeping an eye with your personal stuff, try not to take out your phone , keep close your bags. In chile is very comun to get mugged but silent , you might not notice. Men as ALWAYS will harass , but more from their cars, so its more safe? I guess.

In general is a safe city, but it’s necessary to pay attention to every step you take. There are different districts, some of them safer than others. Sadly the historical center nowadays is very ugly and unsafe.

Every place of Santiago is different. Personally, I live in a very safe neighborhood, but there are others that I really recommend not going. Here, you can walk safe even at night, but in other places, not even in plain daylight you should walk alone. Public transport is usually safe, but you should always be alert with your phones not being robbed and stuff like that.

Safety in Santiago will depend quite a bit on the area. Some places are more dangerous than others. In general, there are assaults and robberies. In certain areas, it is important to take necessary precautions to avoid exposing oneself to any risk.

Santiago can be dangerous depending on the area you are staying in; the city center is quite dangerous, but if you are careful and attentive, there shouldn't be a problem. Always keep an eye on your wallet and cell phone on public transportation.

I have been walking around alone in the Bellavista area and never had anything suspicious. I have been feeling quite safe. For that I do make sure I don’t look wandering about and usually walk with a purpose and don’t go wandering around ar night.

I was in Santiago for 2 days and I fell in love with this city. I stayed in the central part and felt quite safe there. I recommend going on wine tours near Santiago, as well as visiting Portillo, where Laguna del Inca is located. In addition, the best neighborhoods to stay in are Providencia, Las Condes, Bellavista, and Vitacura.
