How safe is Tampere for women?

Usually very safe. Very rarely you see random drug users on the streets and only in certain areas. The town centre and most neighborhoods are very safe even to walk home in the middle of the night. If you need a taxi, use Uber or bolt as they’re most reliable.

Tampere is a peaceful city with less people and the crime rate us very low. I walk home alone even at 4 am and it’s fine. On Friday nights maybe some drunk people try to talk to you but they don’t do anything. Other than that its always safe.

Tampere feels quite safe to me. I often walk and bike home at night, even through forest. Never felt afriad. Would rate 5/5. At most on weekend evening drunk guys might approach but not even harmfully to me, just wanting to chat.

Very safe. Weekend nights might be a bit scarier time, but I have never experienced any problems even when I am walking home alone drunk in the middle of the night. A friend of mine has had an experience of people harassing her during a weekend night. It is not the norm, but if you are going clubbing it is probably better to not go alone. City area is well lit, public transportation is reliable, and there is virtually no risk of pickpocketing. People generally mind their own business, which is often a blessing for a lady traveling alone.

Generally Finland as a whole is very safe, although basic common sense caution applies. The city is well lit and spaciously built, so there aren’t many small alleys or anything like that that might make you unsafe or otherwise uncomfortable. I have never experienced any bother or felt truly unsafe, no matter the conditions or things like my clothes. There has been a bit more harassment of lgbt people in the last few years, but it’s, at most, verbal abuse, never physical danger.
