Very safe! Residential and university town. There are some aggressive homeless individuals on the Main Street but they very rarely bother. I feel quite safe walking home alone at night on weekends, as many students are often out late. On weekdays, you may feel safer walking with another person after dark, but that would be an extra precaution rather than an essential one.

Chapel Hill is a University town. Overall its safe. But some areas are too dark after dark. You may not feel comfortable walking alone after dark. Adjoining towns like Carrboro is safe as well. However, Durham feels unsafe and you must travel with a group in Durham.
