İt can be really dangerous ıf you go to the wrong places. But ıf you know where to go where to be safe you'll be fine. I can show you these places. I feel safe walking around ın my city(time doesn't matter) having fun with my friends or by myself.

One of the safest cities in Türkiye ( Mersin ).You can walk around comfortably (in the light). It is useful to be careful in the evenings as everywhere else, but it is very safe to return home in the evenings.
