Haifa is a very safe city. You can travel alone at night, the places to hang out is central and close to public transportation and students live there. The industrial zone is out of town. You can safely walk home at night. There is only one area preferd to avoid at night, and still it safe there. Just not pleasant. Man are not harrasing woman. There is not kidnapping. You don't have refugees inside the city.

Depends on the district obviously, but even the areas that are more prone to crime are usually about internal beef of people living there and not attacking unrelated persons. All the upper areas seem completely safe to me, never been catcalled or felt unsafe walking alone even in the middle of the night.

I think that Haifa is relatively a safe place, maybe some area require more alertness, but I've walked around a lot in the dark myself. Some areas in downtown are perhaps a bit more tricky and I would avoid...
