Is Rotterdam Safe for Women?

I lived in Rotterdam for a year and a half and never felt particularly unsafe, moving around on bike also helps with this as you’re never stuck anywhere. But even walking I’ve never had a problem though I mostly stayed in residential and central areas

It really depends on which are you are staying at. Usually the south side of the city (divided by the Erasmus bridge) is more dangerous and there are more crime. I rarely experience racism or sexual harassment but it does happen sometimes. I walk home at night often but I always feel safe

In the Center it’s quite safe, just a few areas where I don’t like walking through in the darkness as a woman. And you really have to be careful to not get hit by a bicycle because there are quite a lot

Generally Rotterdam is pretty safe when you cover the basics such as paying attention to where you walk after dark, not pick a fight with anyone, and not approach strangers who look shady. Public transport is generally very safe and there is almost always security personnel present. Metros and buses stop after a certain time but there are always a bunch of Ubers available and they are also very safe to drive with.

It's fairly safe, but like every other country there are bad people luring at night so be aware. But I personally never had such experience where I felt fear moving around my city. Dutch people are nice most if the time and can speak good English, so as a foreigner it won't be hard to travel around in the Netherlands.

Solo travel

I was in Rotterdam in the Sommer and I felt really safe. City is really nice, but you can see most of it in one day. I went to the two hours cruse with boat , and I was disappointed. They show you just the Industry side of the city.
