Is Bochum safe for women?
I feel it really depends on the area you‘re in. Generally it’s rather safe and I don’t worry much, especially as the population is rather high so usually even late at night you are not alone and I feel that adds to security. I know a friend was worried when I mentioned living ground floor on my own but it’s not a problem at all.
Posted: May 12, 2024It’s very safe around here. I used to have a fear of being outside after dark but being here my fear is almost gone now. Every road is well lit and connected to public transport. Even if theres no one outside you would still feel safe here
