Is Barcelona Safe for Women? Crime Rate in Barcelona

It's not as bad as sometimes people tell but you need to be cautious especially with your belongings. I recommend you to stay alert if you are walking late in the streets but as you should do in every city.

Be careful with your phone, there are pickpockets everywhere. The beaches in the city are also targeted so ask someone to watch your valuables while you swim. Also people break into apartments if windows are left open for days. But not much harassment otherwise just be vigilant

it’s pretty unsafe in very touristic areas, but if you stay in a good neighbourhood w locals, you have nothing to worry about. i’m not recommending to stay anywhere near “Plaça de Catalunya”, “Gòtic” or next to “Barceloneta”

During daytime you will be ok nearly everywhere as long as you keep an eye over your things (specially bag and phone). I would not recomend walking alone at night at Barri Gotic, Raval and Barceloneta to avoid drugaddicts that can harass you and thieves. In other zones like Gracia, Eixample or Les Corts you are going to be perfectly fine during the night. Overall i would not worry so much about the harrassment for being a woman but for being stolen.

I think Barcelona is moderately safe. There are some neighboorhoods that are unsafe and well known. For example El Raval distinct is a very known unsafe place in the city. But other neighboordhoods are more safe than them i guess.

There can be some more dangerous areas like in every city. And yes pickpockets are a pest. But if you are aware ofnyour belongings. Overall is a very safe city. Always full of people everywhere and at all hours

I felt safe, even at night walking home alone from the beach. You should go see the la sagrada familia. I loved the tacos For my whole trip I have spent 600€ (with Hostel, flight and food as well as clothing)

Solo travel

I went to Barcelona for two days by myself, I was very nervous and scared since I had never been there and I was alone, but once I got there i found It very easy to get around and the públic transport very straightforward, and the people were very nice and helpful. I never got Lost, the hostel was in a good place, and the beaches were easy to find
