It's the safest captal of Brasil for sure, just be aware of the homeless people, they normally under something but not something to be super worried. Obviously don't were mini skirts or be with your phone oversight.

I wish it was safer. Could have more police monitoring. In other places I feel safer. Thank God nothing has ever happened to me. But it's still one of the safest cities in Brazil. As women we must always be alert.

I think Curitiba is a little dangerous, but if you’re careful with your stuff then you should be fine. Like don’t use your phone when you’re walking on the street, take care of your surroundings, avoid going out alone at night, but don’t stress too much about it too.
