How safe is Preston?
There are lots of students so it's fairly safe and peaceful. Lots of people are on the street in city centre. Lots of stores leave their lights on at night and it's easy to access transportation. Uber is available as well

Preston is pretty safe. I wouldn’t tend to walk alone after maybe 11pm and there are areas I would tend to avoid but on the whole I feel fairly safe there especially on the outskirts of the city area.

I am an intrepid pensioner who loves to travel. Last September I had four days in Singapore, four days in Kuala Lumpur then flew to Vietnam for three weeks going from Nha Trang and up to Ha Noi via several cities. My next trip is to America to watch the solar eclipse on 8th April in Dallas or around that area.
