In Łódź you can feel realy safe. I was born herę and i love herę all my live.Łódz is big city but i am always feel here realy comfortable and safe. I have never been robbed or attacked. I think that every city has its advantages and disadvantages, but in Lodz you can really feel comfortable.
Posted: May 25, 2025I think that in general it is safe in the center , on Piotrkowska street. But when it is getting dark or you are going to any district that is not in the center it is not very pleasant here So yeah don’t go alone in Lodz
Posted: May 19, 2025I’ve never experienced anything dangerous myself but please be careful walking alone by night at suspicious places. During the day is completely safe. In the tourist places you are totally fine! But always stay safe!
Posted: May 5, 2025In my opinion Lodz is basically a very safe city, especially during the day. There are places, for example, the district called Old Baluty that people consider more dangerous during the night, but I've never experienced any type of violence while living in Lodz for more than 20 years. But be careful with pickpocketing

I think Łódź is a relatively safe city. At night you may bump into some intoxicated people, but most of them won't bother you. You may experience cat calling but men usually stop at that. It's best to avoid straining from main streets.

I've been in Łódź during the day and I've felt pretty safe. I really recommend visiting the Museum of the City of Łódź, it's one of the best museums I've seen in Poland. I'm definietly thinking about coming back again to see some more cultural and historical landscapes.
Posted: January 30, 2025Experienced: May, 2024I felt quite safe during my visit to Łódź. The city is vibrant and has a lot to offer. A must-visit is Piotrkowska Street, one of the longest commercial streets in Europe, filled with shops, cafes, and street art. The Manufaktura complex is also impressive, with its mix of history, shopping, and dining. For food, I recommend trying traditional Polish dishes at Anatewka or enjoying a modern twist at Gastromachina. If you’re a coffee lover, stop by Kawiarnia Kawa na Ławę. I stayed at a centrally located hotel which was comfortable and provided easy access to main attractions. Public transport in Łódź is well-connected and affordable, with trams and buses running frequently. My budget was moderate—I spent around 150 PLN per day on meals and transport. If you’re planning a visit, set aside time to explore the OFF Piotrkowska area for its unique atmosphere and local shops. Would definitely return!
