How safe is Ivano-Frankivsk?
Overall it’s pretty safe, just keep in mind that Ukraine is in war. There are shelters available for anyone, sometimes they provide you with a safe passage to one if you are inside the cafe or restaurant. It’s safe overall, but me mindful of drivers and walking alone in night time. City can be busy at night, so best stay walking in spaces that are decently lighted up. Parks are a big no at night, especially if you are alone.
Posted: June 26, 2025I truly enjoy this city because it feels safe. When you walk around, you can be sure that you’ll be alright, but after dark it’s better to be more careful. I haven’t had any bad experiences, but I still try to be more cautious and avoid deserted places
Posted: January 23, 2025I would say that my city (Ivano-Frankivsk) is not that dangerous. It’s a small city and there is almost no crime situations. I’m not scared to walk at night or to walk alone and I’ve never seen some situations, that can worry me in my city
