I would say is a safe city!! Be careful at tourists places as the main square (Plaza españa) and public transport. I have seen some pickpockets on the street, that usually work with an scooter and take phones, mostly to tourist

Very safe Spanish city, very good energy, ideal for traveling and meeting people, walking the streets at any time, dressing as you like, touring the island by public transport without any fear.

Palma is very safe for everyone. I’ve been walking around by myself since I’m a kid and nothing bad as ever happened to me. As a female you can walk around with no worries, even at night. Just be careful at night when you go to the club with your belongings, that’s it

Palma is full of cctv and local people are super reliable In summer you need to pay attention to people who come to the island to rob tourists and can be a little too drunk My flat is in a trendy neighborhood but it is super safe I go out often late

Palma was amazing! We walked around the city and found the cutest little streets everywhere :) People were incredibly nice and even one night where me and my friend walked 3 hours in the middle of the night we did not fell uncomfortable for a second. Palma unites amazing beaches with warm water with a rich cultural centre and loads and loads of street music :) it was a really good experience

Solo travel

in Palma it is safe and convenient to travel alone. I have stayed with friends and at Urban hostel in a dormitory with many other solo travelers. For my country's currency, it is quite expensive in restaurants, but it is easy to also find good and cheaper alternatives in supermarkets. I visited a winery Marcia Batle which is near the Sant Maria train station (20 minutes from Palma). it was very affordable and interesting!
