It's a small city with elderly people, very green, and the younger population is very gentle and respectful. I've never afraid of go out alone during the night or have my house or things stolen. There's a lot of family's here with childrens and some tourist spots to see and visit museum.
Posted: July 19, 2025It’s really safe you can walk alone daytime but also night time. I never really feel unsafe in the city or in the streets close to the city. There is always security at bars and clubs who will protect you if they feel like it’s needed or you tell them you need it.
Posted: January 15, 2025S hertogenbosch is a very beautiful and safe town. It is no problem to walk alone during the day or at night. Public transports are very safe too. It is also really enjoyable to be biking in the city I have never been bothered by anyone I would recommend travelling here
