Very safe, it’s fine to travel alone. There’s plenty of people around at most times of the day and night, so you won’t be alone. There’s policemen and security guards around the populated areas, they are respectful and there if you need help.

I grew up in Örebro, Sweden. Nothing has ever happend to me. There was a school shooting last month, so that makes me and the other locals a little bit more worried than normal. Its okay in Örebro, yes

Örebro is a small town in Sweden with low crime rate. Thing happen as in all places but we have low report of rapes and muggers. I walk alone after dark often, after work in the middle of the night. One minus with the town is poor lighting of the streets. Lighting of roads and so can often be broken which makes it feel less safe.
