Is Amiens safe for women?
Amiens is in general a nice city but has some background. At night there is not a lot going on which is why you don’t feel as safe. Aswell there are many homeless or drunk people during the day and night.

Amiens is a safe city for daytime walks, sightseeing, or shopping! However, some areas, like the north of Amiens neighborhoods, are best avoided. Other parts of the city are perfect and even very quiet—I live in Amiens West, and the South is great too! The Saint-Leu district is the hub for bars and nightlife. Being a woman alone after a certain hour isn’t entirely safe, as is the case in most major French cities. If you’re a solo traveler planning to party in Amiens, I would advise against doing it alone. That said, if you’re in the area and I’m available, I’d be happy to join you!

Amiens is a safer city if you are a tourist ! It’s more dangerous at night and in the north of the city unfortunately.. there are some drugs dealer in the north and in “le parc Saint Pierre” but I never had a problem with him ! I never had any problems in Amiens but I already feel insecure !
