Quite safe. I run alone at nights and never felt fear. I work as remote and I left my purse, computer, phones, iPad in the table to go to the toilet and never happened nothing. Full of military and police. Any new about bad or dangerous situations. Try to avoid the bad neighbours but touristic and center place always safe.
Posted: August 21, 2025Pretty safe, not much happening most of the time. I never experienced any kind of crime in the city, aside from home robbery which may occur at times, especially in nearby towns. Harassment is rare, though Italian "cheekiness" can easily be mistaken for rudeness, especially if you don't speak the language
Posted: March 17, 2025Como is a nice city near lake, a little bit boring in winter but in summer is full of people from all over the world! You can grab a beer, make aperitivo in a one of ours cuties bars or take an ice cream and eat it doing a walk!
Posted: January 20, 2025The city center is quite safe (but be careful to pickpockets!), the surroundings are less safe. Robberies are becoming more common. I’d avoid going out after dark as a woman because I don’t feel particularly safe
Posted: January 18, 2025Como is mostly a safe city I would say , especially during the day . I don’t feel very safe going out at night , but just for my own personal reason , I prefer to visit the city during the day , however fortunately I have never had particularly negative experiences .
Posted: January 5, 2025I went to Como last month. If i can be honest in the Summer season was a lot of people. At the place was a Little bit expensive but i love our gelato and pastas! I really can recommanded the city of the Lake Como like Varenna, Mennagio, Bellagio. This is amazing place like a film
