Wrocław is very safe, I have never had any of the above mentioned problems and I have never heard from anyone that something like this happened. In every city you have to be careful and cautious but there is no reason to worry more.

Generally polish people mind their buissnes so as long as you dont disturb anyone peace u will be good, going from country side to the city centre there will be people who will for sure help i never had bad situation even tho I'm a big fan of night life

I live here since I can remember and never in my life something happened to me. Of course it depends on what kind of people you’ll meet, but in daylight there’s actually nothing to worry about:D But it’s still better to be careful🫶

It depends on districts and time of the day. During the night might be a little creppy and dangerous in some areas. Of course you have to be careful partying, this one area is not the most safest place in the city.

It's pretty safe, not more dangerous than other cities in Poland I'd say. But safety mostly depends on a district. For example Nadodrze is kinda scary cause of ammount of drunk people, but mostly it's chill out there.

wrocław is very safe, i lived. here my whole life and had never been worried about getting robbed or assaulted in public. Public transportation is great, very safe, many children ride busses alone. I fell asleep on a bus a bunch of times, and will do it again. I never worry about getting robbed. The only thing u could potentially worry about are gypsies in the centre of the city, but if just you ignore them you will be totally fine. Overall wroclaw is a very safe city

Overall it's a very safe city, during the day it's perfectly safe, you don't have to worry about harassment or attacks at all. Taking public transport is cheap, safe and reliable. During the night it can be a bit more dangerous, because of drunk people in the city center, but personally I haven't had any bad situation. It may be better to take the uber instead of the night bus

There is a lot of people in Wrocław in general so there is always someone that can help you. I had only one experience when some guy scared me during my night walk and I was born here. I know that you can't be 100% anywhere, but I would say that Wrocław is a city where I feel safe the most.

Most od the city area is monitored by CCTV and well lit. City transport is also mosty monitored, and services as Uber are accessible. As of 2016, when Wrocław became the Europen Culture Capitol the safety increased.

Hiii, so I was in Wrocław last week to celeberate my birthday! It was perry safe, I didnt have any troubles. Only some homless guys was asking me for cigs and stuff. I didnt explore a lot, cuz I went there to hang out with my long distance friends, but I would really recommend a caffe Seoul 97:). I ordered a banana matcha and it was amazing. Well, I spent a lot of money, exspecially for food, but I think it was worth it.:)
