Is Barcelona Safe for Women?

Felt safe but had one incident of cat calling while walking on the street in the evening one day. Otherwise felt fairly safe to travel as a solo female traveller. Would recommend to carry pepper spray

It depends in which part of the city you're renting the apartment. Most local people are not getting robbed, since pickpockets goes often to tourists directly. That's why I always recommend to visit some places with a local guide or a friend. During the day, the city is really nice and beautiful and during the night it's also very nice but you need to be careful.

I have lived here for years and have always felt safe to walk home alone at night and being alone in the city in general. The city feels very very safe, and I have personally never experienced any very unsafe situations.

Very safe. Only real nuisance is opportunistic pick pocketers. They won’t harm you and most times you can’t tell they just stole your wallet or phone. But it’s still upsetting. Make sure you carry your handbag or rucksack face fronting.

All in all Barcelona is quite safe I would say. But I would avoid small streets in the center of Barcelona (Ciutat Vella: Gótico, Born, Raval) at night. And be aware of robbers, watch your belongings and don’t walk with your phone in your hands in the center. As Barcelona is very crowded there is a moderate-high chance to be sexually assaulted, like everywhere.
