I think Szczecin is one of the safest cities. It depends on the location, but overall you can feel safe walking through the city. But at night it is always worth being careful- like everywhere. I would not recommend walking alone at night.

I have been to some places out of city, that’s the safest place for me to walk alone overnight. Therefore I don’t feel being harassed here. I can walk alone, I can use transportation late hours, I can leave my purse around me when i sit somewhere that I don’t have to keep it myself

Szczecin is a fairly safe city although it's still not always comfortable to walk around some parts of it after dark. The center of the city is usually well lit and there's people there so I wouldn't worry about it much

Overall a safe city, same as majority of cities in Poland. People are generally nice, and helpful. There is a few drunk people, however they generally don't cause any problems. Usually they can be found sleeping on bus stations or in public transportation vehicles.

I’d say its pretty safe for a woman in the night, almost no worries about daytime. Being careful anywhere is important, although with a common sense I wouldn’t say it’s dangerous. My advice would be to be extra careful around Żelechowo bądź Parkowa tho
