Is Milan Safe for Women?

Milan is moderately safe if you know which parts of the city to avoid at night. Metro is safe, most of buses are not (90/91/92 lines running at night are well known to be unsafe). If you can, go around in groups.

Milan has changed a lot during the last 10 years becoming one of the less safe cities for women to walk alone in Italy. I recommend not going around alone after dark and being always extra careful on public transport. Keep your things next to you and watch for pickpockets.

Milan in the last years I'd say has become safer, BUT always keep both eyes open and be aware of the surroundings. There's more police around, for example in Central Station or Cadorna/Duomo, especially at night. The public transports are safe overall. There's a line (90 and 91 buses) that is known to be dangerous after a certain hour. The thing is that it's quite full of people sleeping there, cause it goes around the whole night. Just mind your own business and be near the driver. Overall, always keep your purse and personal belongings where you can see and feel them

I've been living for 2 years and no safety issues at all. I don't live in the city center, i'm in a multicultural area but i've been Always feel safe. I use to come back home when the metro Is closed and all the public transport services are safe

Milán is generally safe but I’ve heard stories of pickpocketing and theft especially at night in tourist or going out areas. I have had a lovely time so far but definitely men are quite forward. I’ve been followed while on a lime bike home before but just ignored it. Stay safe!!!
