Is Amman Safe for Women? Crime Rate in Amman

Well it’s relatively safe however we do have a lot of harassment especially towards women. Depending on the area you are in whether it’s a higher income area or a lower one the treatment you receive is different however if you are western you might be treated better than an Arab!

Even though it is next to palestine, a country experiencing political unrest and violence, Jordan remains safer than ever. No one should have any concerns visiting this country. Be safe and safe travels!

Women walk alone night and day without anything happening to us. We might get catcalled but thats the maximum level of harassment an average women here would get. Amman is the safest city in Jordan to go out and about on your own, with very safe public transport.

Amman is safe area , safest place to stay in is west amman especially Abdoun, Khalda, Dabouq. Avoid show you body parts especially in east amman try to be covered. Avoid short shorts and short skirts.

I lived in Amman for a year. Personally, I didn't feel unsafe once. As a white woman, I attracted a lot of attention, but personally, I didn't feel as if I am in danger. People will say "welcome to jordan" quite often, and honk, but mostly, the honking comes from taxis indicating that they are free to offer a ride. I didn't fear being robbed, it didnt happen to any f my friends or me. Cover shoulders and legs out of respect, and wear clothes that are comfortable for you. At night, I either took a bus or an uber/taxiF/Jeeny. East Amman is (according to some friends) a little 'unsafer' than Central and West Amman, so be cautious and try to go with a group. In other areas, i walked alone almost all the time and felt secure.

Amman is very safe place, just make sure not to wear something too revealing. Being respectful and moderate will help you alot, people are so friendly when approaching to them and try to help in all ways. Trying to speak to you is something normal as they will try hard to show you how welcoming they are.

It's very safe for women in Amman, I can walk at night, use transports and go about my normal life without being afraid, it's better to dress modestly just to avoid stares in the streets, and of course like in every country there are few neighbourhoods that you might be catcalled in or not feel very safe at night but there are no reasons to be there anyway😅

Amman is very safe. People here are very friendly and welcoming. I suggest that women coming to Jordan wear modest clothes to respect the culture and also to avoid unwanted attention. Taxi drivers like to chat, it’s better to tell them that you are married. Otherwise, they might ask you to marry them:)

Amman is safe It has a low crime rate. You rarely hear of something bad happening for a girl in the streets especially foreigners. But it is always best to avoid being in alleys and empty streets especially in sketchy areas after dark

My experience in Jordan was amazing! We started in Amman with a two nights stay. People are amazing and really lovely, friendly! At first I didnt know what to expect from Jordan but at the end of the day I realized how safe I actually felt. Afterwards we went to Wadi Rum. We bought a guided tour with a night stay in the desert and it was magical experience. The locals were so friendly and nice. Food was probably the best I ever ate in a foreign country. We then went to Wadi Musa to see Petra and the tour was just amazing. We saw a lot and it was worth every step! We walked from 7 am until 4 pm. The last location was the dead see and well... once you are there you just have to get inside and take a swim. It feels like flying and the water is just great. You have showers there (depends where you go) because after a while you can feel the itch because of the salt. Well thats it! The food was amazing, locals were amazing, prices were solid. The total money I spet for 6 days was maybe around 500€
