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.

Best place to live. Wroclaw is fairly safe for tourists, even at night. Stick together and always make sure you have written down the name of your hotel in case you get lost going home (those Polish street names can be hard to pronounce after a few too many!)

Generally the city is located on south west of country, which is close to the Central Europe. I’d say that the crime levels are mainly low and I am not worried on every day basis about my own security while being out there in the city.

Wroclaw is a very safe city filled with colors and lots of really nice places. I didn’t feel observed or anything like that at any time, the polish are very respectful, a bit cold harder but that’s all. I didn’t see or heard anything about robbery and stuff like that.
