Turku is one of the biggest cities in Finland, but still very safe. The city is cozy and I feel safe here. In Finland you can move outside at any time, of course it's always good to be sure that someone knows where you are and check on your friends, but here I think you can be very peaceful in here.

Turku (Finland in general) has it's occational basic bar fights in the city center, but it is safe to go almost anywhere, at any time of the hour. People do look out for each other. We are known for minding our own business, an that us a blessing and a curse in a away. Meaning that, we might seem a bit stood off to foreigners, but that also means less crime etc. Because we keep to ourselves most of the time :)
Posted: June 24, 2024Turku is a safe place. Crime reports are very seldom. The streets and public transport are safe. If you leave your bike unlocked, there's still a good chance it will be there when you come back for it, although I'd strongly recommend locking the bike, especially in the city centre.

Hi! I'm Magda, a 21-year-old backpacker from Finland! I've fallen in love with traveling, and especially solo. It pushes me out of my comfort zone and I think that's the best way to get to know different people all over the world. I'm interested in many many things; arts, architecture, nature, fashion, cuisine, culture, hiking/biking, history, language, etc etc. I'll be on my first solo traveling trip Nov-Feb in South East Asia! I'd love to hang out (or crash your couch) :)
