Yokosuka is generally safe. I live near the base so there's a lot of US Navy personel doing patrol every now and then. If you need help you can just shout and guarantee people will be there. Been living here for about 6 years now and I love living here.

Yokosuka is a small town. It's accommodating for foreigners. There are two big cities near by (Yokahama and Tokyo). It's also near popular places like Hakone, Odawada, and Kamakura. While there isn't much in the area, it's a very central hub for things.
