Is Norwich safe for women?

It feels like a very safe city, more than most others I’ve been too. As a student and a young woman, I feel I can walk around town (both during the day and night) and not be overly concerned for my safety.

Super safe, friendly and historic city with 2 shopping malls, a castle, cathedral and plenty to do and see. Public transport is fairly regular and gets you to and from the major places in the city. Never had a problem

Norwich is known for being a safe city. I think you need your whits about you when in any city in the UK, but crime rates are relatively low here and I tend to feel safe walking on my own (even in the dark).

It is very safe however you always have to be aware of your surroundings and what part of Norwich you are in. Some are aot safer than others I would always say stay on the main routes. The city has a good night life but just be careful.
