Is Odense Safe for Women? Crime Rate in Odense

I always walk alone and in My 24 heats og Living I have been uncomfortable only 3 or 4 times. And people are very helpful and nice. The city is not a party city but nice to explore and see for the family or alone

Very safe city with good and easy public transportation. City Center is not too big and there's a lot of opportunities for dining out and nightlife. Have walked home alone multiple times at night without feeling unsafe:)

It is pretty safe, I'm not afraid leaving my stuff and walking alone. Sometimes it is uncomfortable in sime areas of the city, but overall, it us safe. When walking late at night the only scary thing are drunk people, but I am bot very concerned about them, as I haven't been assaulted

I have been living in Odense for 1,5 year now and have never felt in danger. Everyone is kind and helpful, even the homeless people are harmless. When I had a night shift, I have been biking during early in the morning and late night, I felt completely safe eventhough the street was empty.

I'd say this city is very safe. Crime rates aren't that high in Denmark all over. Odense is the 3th biggest city in Denmark but it doesn't feel big-city. It's a cosy place with sweet shops and houses in the inner city. People are quiet and keeps to themselves which is just the Danish way. And I've never experienced men touching me without consent other than when going out at night in clubs.

Overall, if you are out in town on a weekend, the chance of getting harassed by the dunk party goers is the same as anywhere else in the world. There are some neighbourhoods that are less friendly, but they are located outside of the centrum and it's residential areas, so you wouldn't go there any way. I feel safe when walking in the night. I have done it several times and have never had a problem.

Odense is overall a safe city i would say. The city has had a focus on being very family friendly and with that comes a bit of safety too. There is the chance of running in to the occasional douchebag when going out, but drinks being spiked is super rare and i dont remember hearing about for the last many years. The very few instances where i have seen women being heckled on the street or in public transportation, there is allways multiple people stepping in to help.

Denmark is in general a quite safe country and I think that also has to do with the really good social system here. I am not afraid about being a woman alone in the night, drunk danish men can be quite annoying sometimes in the night on the streets, but if I compare it to other cities, it is much less and in most cases not border crossing,but still it can be( I didn’t experience it myself but I heard about border crossing drunk strangers).
