Is Copenhagen Safe for Women?

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.

Pretty safe city I wouldn’t walk alone a night anywhere in the world, but it should be very safe to do so in Copenhagen Public transport is pretty safe as well and people seem to be aware of each other’s safety and surroundings in general

I find Copenhagen and Denmark in general very safe. People are helpful, but they respect your personal space. It’s quite clean everywhere, and there aren’t many drunk or homeless people around. People don’t whistle at you.

There is ofc some worries you always will have. But in my 19 years in Denmark I have never experienced something really bad. I have always protected myself with always walking with friends or talking with a friend in the phone while going home alone.

Family travel

Felt really safe, the locals helped me install their public transport app (great for moving around, don’t rely on others like google maps), the city was cold but wonderful, people were really friendly and polite, and food was comfortable, soothing. The nature is well preserved and litter is rarely seen on the road.
