Is Copenhagen Safe for Women?

I live very close to the centrum of Copenhagen and I have never been worried about my safety not even at night. The only times I’ve felt nervous was when I lived outside of Copenhagen and had to wait for the train on the dark s-train stations, but here in Copenhagen I feel very very safe and I know that there are a lot of people around me who are ready to help if something happens.

The safest city I have ever lived in. Everything is very well lit. There are always people out and about. The metros run 24/7, and are very safe and easy to use. There is very little crime (other than bike theft and some pick pocketing) and no weapons, so I feel very safe.

I would say Copenhagen is pretty safe. I don’t live in downtown Copenhagen but I honestly feel more safe after dark in the central area than in the surburban area I live in (which is considered very safe). I have live here my entire life but have never personally had a scary encounter of any sort in Copenhagen.

There's always people around, especially in the city center. It's super safe to take public transport, even at night. I grew up in the suburbs, so I have always had to take the bus or train home if I were out late, and I never experienced anything even moderately uncomfortable. That said, I am a six foot tall woman, so I am about the same height as an average Danish man, and that obviously makes a difference in who I find intimidating.

I would say Copenhagen is overall safe. I’ve never experienced something uncomfortable, like being touch or anything like that I public transport. And I only once experienced a drunk man, being a bit too much, as he kept trying to talk too me, but some other men told him to leave me alone. I feel safe walking on the streets no matter time, but of course there certain places you should avoid at dark.

Solo travel

When I got out of the train and into (nearly) the city center, I genuinely was shocked how peaceful things were. So alive yet so quiet for the amount of things happening. I never had an experience like it. A good balance of zen and excitement.
