How safe is Czech Republic?
Brno
I've spent a lot of time in Brno throughout my life and I've never encountered any safety issues. If you walk alone at dark at some "worse" places, some strange people might shout at you, but I haven't heard about anyone having real problems with them.

Prague
Prague is a relatively safe city for solo female travellers since Czechs are known for not socialising much with tourists and minding their own business. You might be encountered by homeless people especially in larger tourist areas but if you pay them no mind, they'll leave you alone. At night the city centre is well lit and there are many cameras around, the only thing you need to look out for are drunk people or big groups of, usually not Czech, men.

Prague and the whole Czech Republic is very safe, I think the same as also the countries around:) You can feel secure asking people for help, use public transport, enjoy a nightlife even to sleep outside at the countryside.

Prague is big city so the pickpocketing is I think really possible. There are lot of homeless problematic people. When you are traveling at night tram it may be uncomfortable with some weird people. But luckily there is always someone normal whos just coming back from party. Overall I think Prague is kind of safe but i wouldn’t push its limits. On some locations there are lot of drug addicts. Them and homeless people wont do anything. But just in case watch you back at evening.

Never felt unsafe or in danger walking alone at night. You can meet some drunk people but that is everywhere. Overall pretty safe place for women to travel to. If something happens police is always fast and kind. Public transport is also great and you can always use taxi.

Březová nad Svitavou
Březová nad Svitavou is Sudetenland small town in the valley and I think is very safe. We don’t have any pubs. Only one place on fotbal playground, where are drunk people and they are only danger here.

Prague, Group travel
Prauge is fairly inexpensive when is comes to food costs, and me and my friend managed to find a hotel in central Prague for 200$ total for three nights for both of us. A must see-activity is the national museum in central Prague, where there’s historical motifs of the Second World War and artistic interpretations of Prague through out the time!
