The city is fairly safe in the central areas, but some spots are definitely more dangerous. If you're staying in Barriera di Milano, specifically, it is not recommended to be alone at night. On public transport it's generally a good idea to not keep your phone in the back pocket of your trousers.

I have been living in Turin for 8 months, and I love it because this city is one of the biggest in Italy. I find the city safe as a woman living abroad.

Overall I feel safe in Turin, even though there are some areas to AVOID (for example Barriera di Milano, Corso Giulio Cesare). Personally, I did not experience anything bad, also public transportation are quite crowded so I feel safe.
Posted: April 19, 2025Avoiding Milan barrier and aurora every where else is very safe I would say I have walked home alone at midnight or passed that time multiple times even though I would not recommend it in general but it was pretty safe .

Turin is a pretty much young city, full of students most of the year! The area where I live is very nice and central and safe. Usually the places are open after midnight and taxis and ubers are always available.
Posted: April 17, 2025Turin is overall safe. There are some areas that may feel uncomfortable but, since I start living here (2016) it never happen nothing to me. Although it’s better to ride a bike and be careful by nighttime. It’s important to check your personal stuff when there are crowds (expecially the beautiful open market in porta palazzo). That is due to the growing gentrification and racial politics that make for some categories hard to survive.
Posted: March 31, 2025I think that overall Turin is a safe city but the people in every city are the problem. I don't want to go out alone at night in Turin anyway. Expecially if you go maybe in Friday or Saturday night alone or with your friends in a place where there are "strange" person

Turin is safe based on which zone you go to. The centre is pretty safe, even at night, but I wouldn't recommend going out at night as a girl in zones far from the centre. At night, it's best to avoid parks and stations, because there might be groups of strangers or guys to bother you. During the day, Turin is pretty safe. I feel okay walking everywhere during daylight.
Posted: March 22, 2025As with every city, there are more or less safe areas. I recommend not to go to the barrier area of Milan alone. The historic centre is more frequented and also safer in the evening. In general it's a fairly safe city.
Posted: March 21, 2025It depends a lot on the neighborhood you're in. I think the safest zones are in the ovest side (like Crocetta, borgo san paolo, pozzo strada), and the worst are on the Nord, from Porta Palazzo on (like Aurora, Milan Barrier). San Salvario is a zone where you can have fun with friends, but I don't recommend walking alone at night in all the streets...

Turin is worth a visit for a the weekend and also has some good places for food. You can easily get around by foot as the main attractions are all in the center. Better to buy the entry tickets for museuns in advance as some exhibitions are easily sold out. Also make reservations for restaurants, especially if you do not travel alone as most tables are booked in advance.

There is lots of interesting museums in Turin, you should definitely visit the royal museum and Egypt museum, if you have time the cinema museum is a nice addition and depending on the exhibitions could be really interesting. Don't go more north than Dora river thos its not safe, especially during the night

Hi, I'm Vevve! I'm a 23yo open-minded girl from Italy (Piemonte) and a nerd who likes anime and all sort of fandom stuff (books, TV series, animated shows, ao3 fanfictions, and so on). I love writing, growing plants, taking care of animals, staying at home to draw and getting lost in my own world, travelling, learning languages and eat sweet things! I would love to make safe friends and hopefully travel the world through mutual exchanges!
