Jena is probably the safest town in the entire world. It excels within its secure neighborhoods and generally extremely low violent crime rates. I could not think of a safer city to live as a woman.

In my opinion: pretty safe, cause it's a small city. There is definetly catcalling and stuff but I'm never afraid of being robbed, etc. I'm always a little bit scared going home alone at night, but there aren't a lot of people on the Street and I think its pretty safe

In general Jena is one of the smaller cities of Germany but full of young people so you feel very safe. Since there is a big university in the city centre you meet people all the night but feel very safe because the majority is very chill and friendly

It‘s a small and cozy city. You will meet many students. It‘s super safe for women and all the people are super nice. There don’t exist a crime szene. You will maybe only hear from store robbing. That‘s it.

I’d say Jena is quite safe! They’re some homeless people in the centre that beg for money that can sometimes be a bit irritating when they try to talk to you but they’re harmless overall. But otherwise Jena is mostly quiet at night except there’s like a party going on haha.
