it is overall really safe city but you can see some people who are drunk in the coffees and clubs. It’s really important not visiting as a new, in clubs at night because people here want to drink a lot of beer at night and during the day. but public places are really safe. People are not disturbed from any type of your closing or they don’t want to touch you. You don’t see this kind of things at all. Only visiting kind of specific places can lead people to think about you like that.

I feel quite safe in Stuttgart but especially at night there are definitely places you should try to avoid if you’re by yourself. There are lots of drunk people and stuff. I’ve never been in an unsafe situation luckily.

I‘d say Stuttgart is pretty safe in general, at das you mostly do not have to worry, just be cautious in touristy places where there are lots of people to stay away from pickpocketes. At night it really depends where in Stuttgart you are, but I’m the inner city where most of the bars and clubs are it’s pretty safe. On weekends, there are people everywhere all night long, most clubs have a safety concept and an awareness team. So I‘d say apart from the occasional catcalling and weird looks from men you should be finde staying in the more visited areas.

As its a small and rich city, there is low crime But of course there are areas to avoid at night, otherwise, very safe, no worries on walking alone at night, till midnight I would say Having said that, there are incidents of course but not common.

Stuttgart is generally safe. You should not leave your valuables alone or for everyone to see of course, and keep them close to you especially in crowded places. But I have never experienced a huge safety problem, and I've been living here for 5 years now. At night it can get a little creepy if you're on your own, you should stay away from the "schlossplatz" and lonely alleys when it's dark. There are often drunk people, groups of men or homeless people that gather there. But at daytime it's fine.

I would describe Stuttgart as a safe city overall, but there are some places you shouldn't go at night. For example, as a woman, I wouldn't go out on Königstraße at night. You should also avoid the city parks at night to stay safe

Stuttgart is a safe place to live. Even after midnight in the downtown area, I have never felt unsafe. There are always some people around or cars going down the street. It’s important to remember that the Ubahn goes only until 1 am and the Sbahn goes the whole night with a much lower frequency after 1/2 am.

In Stuttgart you can walk as female around alone also at night. You can also take the public Transport after dark and there is always police and safety Personal around. Avoid Schlossgarten after dark alone since there are also drugs sold.

Stuttgart is a big city with a lot of different cultures. I notice that I have to be more careful next to schloss park at night, but there are also a lot of policies there. The public transport is really ok , I think the people here is open and nice.

Solo travel

Stayed near the train station and felt safe walking around in the night (10pm or so). Main shopping street is lively even in the evening. Nice Central Park to sit and soak in the view. Try the local dishes like dumplings in soup and roast with potato dumplings.

Solo travel

Stuttgart is a very safe city for solo women travelers and is really easy to get around. Extremely diverse and plenty of places to explore (food, drinks, history). Definitely check out Stuttgart if you are in Germany.
