I really feel comfortable and relaxed here. I live in the heart of the city and usually observe people boozing around and dancing, however all of them are quite positive and not aggressive at all! I have never had a feeling of stress here.

This city has a remarkable sense of safety; it's perfectly fine to take a stroll even after the sun goes down. You’ll feel at ease exploring the streets and soaking in the evening vibes. By the way, you can visit the city center, the botanical garden, and etc

Germany is one of the safest countries in Europe. I usually travel at night. I have never had any problems so far. Since Osnabruck is a small town, the possibility of such things happening here is very low.

I‘ve been living in Osnabrück for a year and nothing ever happened to me. The Neumarkt is a place where I don’t really feel safe in the dark. Besides that I mostly felt safe. There was once a car following me, three guys sitting in there. They hided after the corner so I changed my direction. Nothing happened. It was the only time I felt very unsafe
Posted: April 29, 2025It's okay. Sometimes things happen, and you pick up on something. Personally, nothing bad happened to me, except that I was followed and yelled at. However, there are dangerous places, some where more happens and others less.

• overall quite safe and has a low criminal rate • some dangerous areas (especially at night and as a women/female presenting person) such as "neumarkt" or "johannisstraße" • mostly no cctv • a night taxi service for women that costs only 7€ and gets you home safely
Posted: December 24, 2024My experience in Osnabrück eas amazing. I found a really lovely host via Be Welcome who even gave me her bike to use! I had a wonderful time in this small cute city. Everything is reachable by bus or bike or even foot. Roses and lavender were blooming and the people were friendly. I felt very safe, even on the main roads and city centre at night.
