It‘s usually very safe except at some locations at night. Especially at the train station there can be some strange people but personally I’ve never had a bad experience. There are usually some security guards.

It’s a mid size swiss town. People are kind while doing their thing. They mostly would help you finding a place or by giving directions. Like most places in Switzerland, Winterthur is very safe, also for women.

It's one of the bigger cities in Switzerland. Nevertheless it feels like a small village compared to international cities. There is enough police in the public transports and during the night I feel very safe as a young woman. The criminal rate is very low (overall in Switzerland).
