How safe is Lahti?

Lahti is actually known as one of the unsafest cities in Finland. But living here for 6 months and i hadn’t got any bad situation on my mind. People here are rather quite and home lovers so there is a really low chance to meet someone in the streets☺️

I have been living here for more than a month, and I go out all the time, yet still nothing happened, and no one approached me. I feel so safe here to leave my stuff and then come back to them again. It's a great city in a great country.

Lahti has a little bit bad reputation. People called it the Chicago of Finland. I have never felt scared there and I think the bad reputation is coming from drugs. It is a very small town and for example when walking during night, you might not see anybody.
