Is Espoo Safe for Women? Crime Rate in Espoo

Relatively safe, most popular areas are typically safe, as well as well connected. You might sometimes encounter people who may seem sketchy at first glance late at night but they're rarely actually an issue

As a Finnish city Espoo is extremely safe overall as the Finnish culture is based on trust and people are friendly with each other. I don't worry about my stuff being stolen or being attacked. Naturally there is some sexual harassment especially late at night at some clubs or such, but compared to my experiences in other European cities, there is less harassment here in Espoo.

During my 5 years living in Espoo, I’ve never felt unsafe. At most I’ve encountered drunk people who might act lout but in the end they don’t usually pose any real threat. Of course, me not experiencing anything unsafe doesn’t mean Espoo is perfectly safe but generally speaking it’s safe both for locals and travelers.
