Bergamo is overall a safe and turistic city ! I'm originally from Milan and it's more dangerous and unsafe than Bergamo ! I reccomand to stay in the center and avoid the train / bus station in the darkest hours (Late evening and all the night )! Bergamo Alta ( historic city on a hill ) is the safest. Also my house is located in a strategic area : 10 minutes by walk from the bus/train station and 15 minutes by walk from Bergamo Alta . I live beside the Police Station and we have a lot of bus stops around our area !
Posted: August 20, 2025Actually Bergamo is a really safe place because they are government rules are so strict and if you know you know the new rule is that if if someone is a woman murderer it means that he’s going to get jail for life so the rules are so attracted and as a woman with this new rule, I feel safe than before
Posted: August 12, 2025I think Bergamo is quite safe, crime rates are low. Of course you should avoid some specific streets where usually there are people who use drugs or are drunk. If you know where to go, you can walk alone without any worries.
Posted: July 28, 2025Bergamo is a safe city especially the “center”. I live in a small town near by but i went to uni in Bergamo and it’s an amazing city. Like everywhere in the world we have to be careful but come to Bergamo, it’s an amazing city! And don’t forget Bergamo Alta

Near Bergamo central station there are many people doing drugs and alcohol. I defintly recommend avoiding this place if you can (especially at night). Other places then there, like City Alta are overall pretty safe.

I felt safe in the city, we did rent a car for most of the trip and roadtriped through the mountains and slept in the car We rented the sleeping bag from decathlon and were zero cold despite being december. I really loved the winter markets we went but they were small compared to others in europe :)
