Is Hanover Safe for Women? Crime Rate in Hanover

It is not the overall safest place but it’s also still mostly safe to walk around. I wouldn’t recommend to walk around really dark places without street light. I mostly call a friend when walking home at night.

Hannover is all in all a pretty safe place. Just some areas especially around Steintor and Raschplatz I wouldnt recomment to go alone as a female in the dark. I already did it and nothing happened it is just not a nice feeling to be alone in this places!

Hannover is a pretty safe city. Just don't go to Steintor or the central station at night. Weird people there. Otherwise it's a little weird because most of the time it's just things that get broken or cars somehow suddenly being on roofs?? A little weird

I feel safe in Hannover most of the times even when walking home alone during the night. The public transport is very convenient in my area, so you get home easily. The street lights are bright enough to feel comfortable walking home at night.

In Hannover, the drug and crime rate is quite high. I don't feel very comfortable being out alone, but it could be much worse; it's particularly bad at the main train station and at Steintor. However, there are also many police officers around for security reasons.

Germany in generally is quite safe. Places like Steintor and Hauptbahnhof have a bad reputation though. I would not worry too much about it, keep an eye on your stuff and act assertive, and you will be fine ;-)

Solo travel

I felt safe, but most of the food was greek or Schnitzel there was almost no other kind of meat, it was really cold even if it was august and there was not much to do, just going to the mall and stuff like that, I did like an asian place that had "red curry rice" in the hannover train station mall, it was the best food I tried there, and after 2 years, I still miss it

Couple travel

I think Hannover is a great city to travel. It’s big and modern, which attracts me a lot. I’ve definitely had a great time there. And also I love the buildings there. It’s not single but different kinds of. I love this Variety. It’s like the people there, from different countries and have different views.
