Is Hamburg Safe for Women? Crime Rate in Hamburg

If you know where not to go you are completely safe I would say! I never lived anywhere else and know Hamburg like my purse, it never happens anything to me or close friends or family! You just need to stay away from certain places that’s all:)

It very much depends on where in the city you are. Overall I feel very safe in my day to day life. Of course as a woman walking home after dark I am a bit more alert but still don't feel super unsafe. Certain areas should be avoided at certain times of the day but overall Hamburg is not a city where you have to worry about your safety in my opinion.

Hamburg feels pretty safe for women, but like in any big city, you’ve got to stay a bit aware. Public transport is totally fine, and most areas are chill, even at night, though spots like the Reeperbahn can get sketchy with all the drunk people. Catcalling is definitely a thing—way too much, honestly—but I’ve never felt in real danger. Violent crime isn’t a huge problem, but tampering with drinks in clubs is something to watch out for. Overall, as long as you use common sense, Hamburg is a good place to be as a woman.

All in all, Hamburg is a very safe place. However, as anywhere in the world, being a woman (or non-binary, transgender, just in general not-hetero-male person) it is possible to hearing some comments or being harrassed, especially by cis-men in the evenings or at night. So sometimes that feels a bit annoying or unsafe, but usually people around you are alert and step in or police will be there if anything major happens.

Around the Main Station it can get a bit creepy at night. But if you are with a Group or simply trust your gut feeling I would say you are good! Of course its always still important to stay careful and keep your eyes open as a solo female traveler:)

Generally pretty safe, especially during the day. At night there can be quite a few sketchy areas, especially around the central train station and Reeperbahn. Been living here for close to two years and never been harassed, but definitely felt a bit unsafe at night around the areas I mentioned.

Hamburg is very safe overall. The public Transport in the Center of hamburg is sometimes not the best Option. But I do feel very safe when I am walking down the Street at night time. You dont have to fear getting attacked.

It really depends on the part of Hamburg, but where people just live I feel very safe. In parts like Reeperbahn or Sternschanze in the night I don’t feel well beeing alone as a woman. But all in all it is much better than in many other places.

Living in Hamburg my whole life I rarely experienced uncomfortable situations with strangers. I lightly depends on the area, if you are around the main party areas drunk people are more likely to overstep boundaries and create uncomfortable situations.

The safety of the city depends a lot on what area you are in. But I would advise you to keep an eye on your things and not to walk alone in the dark too much. It feels especially unsafe on Friday evenings and Saturdays, as there are a lot of drunk people in the city and demonstrations are taking place.

Family travel

I felt safe, i just had to watch out on the streets with clubs. I would recommend going to Kunsthalle museum and if you like going out then Reeperbahn. My restaurant recommendation is block house. I stayed at my sister’s so she drove me around but there is local bus and a train.

Family travel

We were in Hamburg. The city has many activities. Like take a boat trip. I was at the musical "Harry Potter and the cursed chıld". The city library is huge. In the basement, used/old books, audio books, films and games are sold at a reasonable price.
