Is Istanbul Safe for Women?

Istanbul is very dangerous bc of the men. There are sooo many women crimes and the country is going worst for sure. But this app helps a lot but rlly dont trust anyone in turkey but woman. You can trust me i will protect my visitors 🫡

Istanbul is not a very safe place for a woman to live I believe. If you are here to travel it’s a great place to visit for a couple of days but to live or stay more than a few days…I don't think so. Here is the thing about Istanbul, this city specifically is the center of the country. Everyone in the country emigrates to Istanbul because there are more job opportunities and the city is more alive than any other city in Turkiye. So it's too crowded…The city is full of people some of whom are not very safe to be around.

Some places especially in European side are quite less safe compared to Asian, especially at night. But all touristic places are mostly located at European side. Should be careful with scammers in general

This is a crowded, metropolitan city. Moreover, in Turkey recently, justice is not being applied as it should; in my opinion, the courts never give criminals the punishment they deserve. Every day, hundreds of women are raped. As I said, Istanbul is very crowded and has major security problems, especially for women.

I was born and raised in Istanbul, but I am currently in Ankara for university. Istanbul is a great city; I think everyone in the world must see it. It is not an option—you must come here. History, culture, Turkish cuisine, modernity, nightlife… everything is in one city. Believe me, you are going to love it here.

Solo travel

Istanbul was magical. I had a blast there! It was my first time traveling abroad and I did it alone, no regrets🥰 Met amazing people and i felt safe there the whole time I didn’t do many activity since the trip was poorely planned yet i had so much fun. The public transportation is greaatt, didn’t have to use a taxi once. I mostly used buses,public ferries and metros/tram
