Hong Kong is a big city that the crime rate is quite low. I feel safe walking alone at night and have no worries about being robbed or attacked on streets as a citizen here. But still have to be aware while you are at some district. Most of the time and places are safe and have no worries.

There's little violent crime in Hong Kong. Everywhere is mostly safe at night. Hong Kong consistently ranks among the lowest in the world for terrorist incidents and natural disasters (which places it above Japan on the safety scale in our books). If anything were to happen, Hong Kong boasts extremely reliable police and emergency services.

Hong Kong is a moon the safest places on Earth. You can walk day or night without being harassed by anyone. Theft is punished by a $10,000 HK$ fine and imprisonment. If you lose something on the street you can be sure someone will call out for your attention, signaling the item you dropped.

It is very safe in Hong Kong. For example, if you put your phone on the table in a restaurant, nobody will take it. Or if you even forget your phone in the restaurant, you may still get it back after many hours.
