Is Lisbon Safe for Women? Crime Rate in Lisbon

I’ve been living there since 2020, nothing bad ever happened to me there! The crime is going up everywhere, but the only thing u find the most are pickpockets. Being a woman, anywhere in the world you will go you will get catcalled and stuff like that, but at least no one ever came up to me!

It very much depends on where you are at which time. Martim Moniz and Oriente are pretty safe during the day but at night they might be too dangerous to walk alone. Overall those are the roughest areas but if it's during the day you'll probably be fine :D

It is really safe and the area that I live in is extremely safe too. I haven’t witnessed anything suspicious or more dangerous and I feel safe even walking around at night. The public transport is also safe

I've always lived in Lisbon and I've always felt safe. Obviously there are crazy people everywhere and you have to be careful, but in general, Lisbon is safe! At night the streets are almost always busy, in the places of greatest concentration, such as Cais do Sodré, Baixa Chiado, Santos, etc... and in the afternoon even more, with a lot of life

Generally safe, I did not feel like I had to worry much. As with all travel, general travel sensibilities apply. Keep your belongings safe, beware of pickpockets. Avoid wandering dark alleys at night as a solo female traveller. Do not purchase goods from strangers who approach you from the streets or alleys.

Overall I feel safe in Lisbon and I've never had bad experiences with uber drivers, in public transportation, walking alone at night or walking in busy touristic areas. I'd still advise cautiousness for pickpocketers and drug dealers.

I would say that’s its safe city. Sometimes there are things to happen, but at the specific areas only (you just avoid them when it’s dark). I’ve never experienced any unsafe situations and my friends as well.

At day it’s really safe but at night you need to be careful alone as a girl bcs sometimes they are strange men in the streets that try to follow you or talk to you :)))

Lisboa is a very chill and peacefull City. I have been living here for the past 6 years and it is really a great place to find a middle ground betwen living in a city yet keeping a slow place. How ever that doens’t mean you Will be bored! There is always something new to discover an in a lot of diferente subjects, dependi Go on your interrests!!

Lisbon is the safest city in Europe for me and I have been almost everywhere! Everyone is nice and stay away from you if you look scared . Even at night it is really ok . I feel constantly secure even if you can see in the streets sometimes people are really high but not dangerous at all almost nice😅

Group travel

lisbon was such a pretty city ! the monasteries were a bit expensive for our budget but we went to miradores, gave à walk in the old city which is really pretty with its little streets. We also went to sintra, accesible in train at 40 min, where there are at least 3 beautiful castles in different architectural styles sooo worth it !! im vegetarian so i didnt try traditional food with fish but pasteis de nata yes and it was such a succulent desert!

Family travel

I don’t think I’ve fell in love with a city faster than falling in love with Lisbon and Portugal in general. I loved the city, the people, the views, the architecture… I was mostly walking alone and I remember feeling safe. There’s a lot to see and a lot to do.
