Is Los Angeles Safe for Women?

Look, Los Angeles is BIG. It all depends on where you are, and what time of day. There are really rough neighborhoods I would never go to, and other areas that are pretty safe all the time. As with any location in the world, be cautious, know where you are and you’ll be fine!

Pretty safe depending on what areas you are in of the city. Generally like any big city, car theft is probably the most common crime. Public transport can be sketchy since most people in LA have cars and drive.

Los Angeles is a very large city, but I wouldn’t say most of the city is safe to walk around at night. It’s a car centric city so either you’ll be isolated when walking or you’ll be in a neighborhood that isn’t as safe. In a group, it’s ok.

There's quite a lot of homeless people. I wouldn't trust random strangers on the spot, especially if it's a man. There's scamming around here, too. Don't let people pressure you into things. I'm always keeping an eye on people.

I love living in LA and depending on the neighborhood feel very safe! There’s so much to do and so many friendly people! I love hiking at Runyon Canyon, Fryman Canyon, Elysian Park, and Griffith Park and often do those hikes solo.

Solo travel

I went in LA to take some dance class and discovered the dance community there and it was amazing ! I meet some dancer from all over the world, there is a lot of dance studio, so a lot of choice ! What you have to know is that the town is really big and it be better and safer with a car cause there is a lot of drugs people in public transport.
