Overall safe but still not 100%, some places should be avoided at night like Araby and Teleborg. People are friendly and will help you if you need any help but some people and groups are a bit creepy but I doubt they would do anything more than just creep you out.

In general Sweden is a very safe country. sometimes people from different countries in large groups can be intimidating, but the reality is that there’s nothing to worry about. You can feel free to walk alone or go outside at night.

Vaxjo is a very calm place and greeny. There are beautiful lakes in the city and people are very kind. We have a bug university and lots of students live in the city. I love it. I think if you live nearby and want to hike it's a good place.
