How safe is Jeddah?

I have stayed out till after midnight many days! And lived here my entire life. Generally, Jeddah is very safe for travelers, especially women. I can confidently say that women can solo visit Jeddah with peace of mind.

Solo travel
I did a 4 day stopover in Jeddah and I had a blast. The old town was gorgeous. People were mostly active at night and it was just such a different experience. Very few tourists and I felt safe as a solo female traveler.

My solo trip to Jeddah was great! Visiting Makkah was a spiritual journey, and taking taxis around was convenient. The lonely corniche, pleasant weather, and overall safety made it a really peaceful trip.
