Is Emden safe for solo female travelers?

As a solo female traveler, it's advised to avoid unoccupied roads during the late hours. However, during the day, the city provides a safe environment to explore. Despite Germany's safe reputation, It's always necessary to take standard safety precautions regardless of where you're traveling.

I feel pretty safe here at night, but am still cautious. I would not rate it the safest of all east frisian town since I feel like there are a few more strange people around, but I am not really worried. It's nothing compared to bigger cities, so if you are used to that you don't have to worry here at all! (Apart from the normal level of caution ofc)
