Is Prague Safe for Women? Crime Rate in Prague

I think Prague is overall a very safe city to be in. Of course, there are parts that are less safe than others, but I would not be worried about a big crime there. The only thing I’d pay attention to are pickpockets, but again, compared to other bigger cities, it is still very uncommon.

Prague is I think, one of the safest cities - we have excellent public transport and no ghetto-no go zone. There can be problems with drunk foreigners (Prague is famous for a cheap beer), but it's one incident in ages. Police are really good and will definitely help if there is any problem. I am feeling overally safe. However, I would warn before pickpockets. As Prague is an extremely turistic place, there are lot of them and also some tourist scams. I would recommend YouTube channel HonestGuide for exact advice.

Prague is generally a safe city, especially the city center since there is a lot of tourists. I wouldn’t recommend being in Zizkov area and in the main train station area after dark - many homeless people, some of them make you feel unsafe.

I feel very safe in the city and also hiking in the Czech Republic. But Prague is a capital after all, so petty crime such as pickpocketing and vehicle thefts and break-ins occurs. Pay attention when taking a cab, especially at hotspots, unlicensed cabs often wait there. Ordered cabs, that is more reliable. When changing money on the street, foreigners may be given counterfeit money or banknotes of a much lower value by third parties. In bars and other establishments, bills may be increased and narcotics may be used, resulting in theft and occasionally sexual abuse.

Prague is very safe unless you are just unlucky with some bad people but overall its safe. I never had any bad incident in 4 years. Public transport is safe. You may meet few homeless but they are usually not dangerous.

The city itself is very nice and so are most of the people. There are a lot of tourists, however they do not usually approach people in the streets. Locals are kind and open to help if it is needed. I feel very safe living here.

Prague is very safe, just be careful around the main train station and Vaclavske namesti around the evening/night hours. Police is almost everywhere, but rather keep an eye on your pockets and handbags.

I have been loving in Prague for two years now, and have never had a bad experience. I am of course vigilant and being safe and take precautions. However I have never experienced anything where someone would harass me ir won’t leave me alone after being asked to. As a girl going out alone at night I do feel quite safe

I would say Prague as a big city is safer than other big cities. Robberies are common but you can very well avoid them. Traveling alone at night is sometimes a bit scary. It is great to avoid dark and deserted places (at night when you are alone).

As a woman, safety is very important while traveling and I feel that Prague is a very safe place to be. As a woman I can walk by myself in the middle of the night and not worry about anything. Maybe a drunk person might ask you for money, but they won't do anything to you.

Solo travel

Prague felt mostly safe, although very crowded! The christmas markets were cool. I stayed in an all women’s hostel that was right in old town and quite nice, would definitely recommend staying there! You will enjoy if you are an architecture buff or enjoy history! I can’t comment on the party scene but I hear that it is also good.

Solo travel

Very pretty city as well-known. Lots of tourists, very crowded. 3 days were enough. Felt safe, easy to walk around. Some food were expensive, but some were ok. Try lunch menus. Would like to comeback with mom
