Is Copenhagen Safe for Women? Crime Rate in Copenhagen

Super safe, both in the city center and in peripheral / rural, with occasional drunks but that’s all it gets to. Didn’t experience any strange stares by men and was even helped without even asking to find tickets / directions!

I won’t say that Copenhagen is 100% safe, because no place is and as a woman.. unfortunately.. there will be the creeps, the cat calling etc. however I will say that I feel safe here most of the time and has in my 5 years here only experienced something that made me feel unsafe a couple of times. Overall I don’t think twice about going for a walk at night or go for a run in the early mornings.

Copenhagen is super safe. It’s also a pretty dense city so you never feel alone. The only times I have felt a little bit uncomfortable have had to be Friday or Saturday night when many people are drunk. Nothing has ever happened and I have always managed to get home safely but I will always recommend anyone to go home with a friend in the evening.

The safest for most parts. 95% of the areas are safe to travel to. I haven’t had anything stolen etc. going out at night for drinks is safe too. And if you don’t feel like walking home there is public transportation and caps everywhere

City center, Vesterbro, Nørrebro, Østerbro, Amager, Islands Brygge and Sydhavn are overall safe places. Of course scetchy people walk around from time to time, as in any major city but I'd say a travel to Copenhagen requires no special safety preparations, other than common sense :)

Copenhagen is probably the safest place in the world, as a woman it's always a bit scary to exist or to be in specific situations, but overall I'm not worried about my safety in Copenhagen. I'm not scared of using public transport, and I have used it alone since I was like 7 and in the middle of the night alone since I was about 14.

It’s a safe city I would say, I love living here and I never experienced anything bad at night🫶🏼 I think most people would agree that Copenhagen is one of the safest places to be, I have never had any trouble with walking alone🌸

Copenaghen Is one of the safest cities in the world. I am italian and I used to live in Rome. So I can compare them, and I can say that Copenaghen is super safe! You can walk on the street alone in the night and nobody will disturb you!

It’s fairly safe but at night you should be more cautious as there could be drunkards in The public transport. If you’re not White unfortunately sometimes you Can get exposed to things, but overall it’s safe and you Can get around by yourself

Copenhagen it's pretty much safe. However it is still a possibility to face racism, homophobia or Islamophobia by a drunk person on a Friday night. in mornings and work days, ppl are so quiet and calm. everyone is just busy with their own stuff. I can't speak much for nightlife cuz I am not a very outgoing person. But i definitely think it is a safe city for solo travelers and women. And the public transportation is easy to figure out.

Solo travel

Very nice city with lots of cultural stuff to do. I felt very safe and respected as a solo traveller. I met a lot of nice peoples in my hostel. We did things together and it was a grest experience for me travelling alone.

Couple travel

I was in Copenhagen before Christmas with a friend, the city was totally safe! But we felt like there are not much to do! Though we enjoyed the time we had there! From Xmas decorations, Tivoli gardens and we took a guided boat tour through the canals. We walked everywhere and only used the train from/to airport. We also went on a day trip to Malmö which I don't really recommend if you don't have plans what to do there! It was boring for us really! The food was great, especially the burgers and the cardamom pastries were so special! Also the vanilla cookies were amazing! We stayed at Steel House Hostel and got a room with views to the canals for 30 Euors a night! The hostel was very clean and provided great amenities for the price!
