I’ve lived in Houston a long time. I wouldn’t feel safe walking at night in isolated areas but would feel safe walking in areas where there are a lot of people. But please, lock your car doors and don’t leave anything in sight in your car.

Houston is fairly safe… don’t walk alone. You can party safely at night just as with any city take your own precautions. I go out most weekends and haven’t had anything crazy happen, I just don’t go to south side to party…
Posted: June 21, 2025Suburbs are safe, in the city you must keep your head on a swivel. Women should not be alone after dark. Violent crime and property crime are fairly high. Stay out of the “wards”. If you are going out at night bring mace and 2+ friends. Safety in numbers

I would say Houston is relatively safe. You just want to know the safest areas in town. Some of the neighborhoods East tend to be more dangerous than the neighborhoods in the West. Public transportation is very minimal. Safe areas will include the galleria area. Montrose. The heights. Downtown. Midtown. Rice university area.

Houston is like any other city as far as risk, but I haven’t had any problems personally myself in Houston and I’ve been here over 11 years. Most people here are hard working people. It’s safe enough to travel alone, because I travel alone to most places myself and I feel pretty safe.
