Belgrade is usually a good town of you are worried about safety and behavior of people who live in the Belgrade. If you need any help to find a place to go, 90% of citizens at the street will gladly help you with that. Also, we have i would said a lot of tourists for not that popular European country. :)

It's pretty much safe - I live around center, never had any problems and I'm not scared to walk back home at 3pm, 3am, 7am :) Streets are calm, even if somebody passes they are probably just walking home as well

Generally speaking it's a pretty safe city. Couple of things I'd watch out for pickpocketers in buses and busy bus stops. I wouldn't be that comfortable walking alone late at night. If you need some sort of help in the city feel free to reach out to a stranger, usually people are kind and willing to help.

for me, Belgrade is the safest place to live among relatively big cities. I have lived here for two years and I have never had any unpleasant situations worth paying attention to. my friends have too. the only thing to be wary of here in my opinion: your wallet can be snatched from your bag, but no one will ever snatch your bag from your hands
Posted: June 13, 2025The only people you should be warry of, I'm sorry to say it, but it's the truth, are the Romani people. Other than that, Serbs are very well behaved and it is not a common occurence to rob, mug, assault or anything of that nature. I feel safe even after midnight.

During my stay at Belgrade I felt safe. I met really kind and interesting people. Serbs love dogs, I saw them everywhere. Public transport is free now, so we drove everywhere. I slept at Different Belgrade camping, about 15 km from the city centre. If you're vegan like me, you can easily find Asian vegan options.
