The city is basically New York, but just: safer, less crowded, cleaner, and did I mention safer? Yes Copenhagen was a wonderfull place for a single lady. Also many many cafes offer opportunities to meet new people, like board game cafes where you can just sit down and join a game. Stand up comedy night are also frequent. Overall a pretty fun city!
Posted: June 10, 2025Our road trip in Denmark was amazing! We always felt safe and we found a lot of facilities, like parking, toilet and shower (sometimes even for free). Don't miss visiting Råbjerg Mile, the city of Ribe (with the free night watchman tour), sleeping with your car on the beach, searching for seals on Fanø island. Really, there is so much to see, not only Copenhagen!
Posted: May 30, 2025Experienced: August, 2024Rellay nice city, very safe, good food, clean etc but very expensive. Love louisiana museum and tivoli. The food was nice everywhere but i recommend Sonny and Atelier September for the brunch. The best cinnamon rolls of my lifeeee were at Mormors. The Hotel were very expensive so we stayed in a very nice Hostel called Steel House. However I do not recommended it if you are in family but for young people it's very nice.

I recently went to Denmark twice and I loved it! It’s, in my experience as a white cis-woman, quite a safe and inviting country. I even hitchhiked there and had no problems doing so or felt unsafe at any time. I spent some time in Copenhagen and absolutely loved it - I recommend going to Tivoli and spending a whole day there because it makes you feel like being a kid again :)
Posted: May 28, 2025Copenhagen is very very safe even after dark. I never felt unsafe nor threatened in this city. The public transportation here is TOP TIER! The metros interval is less than 3 min. It is a very pretty city but I wouldn't recommend going there in the fall. The weather was too hard harsh for me to enjoy my whole trip.

It's actually a very calm city compared to bigger ones. I live close to the center, so I can sometimes om the weekends hear a few people walking outside and talking, a bit drunk as they walk from one bar to another, but nothing bad. I don't really go partying, so I don't know how that would be, but usually, even that is pretty calm and uneventful as most people stick to their own group and remain polite. Personally, I've not yet had a bad experience here with people. I also live on the 4th floor, so it's very safe for me
Posted: June 14, 2025It is quite safe. You can easily walk home alone at night when in centrum of Aalborg. I feel very safe as a woman. Something big like rape or murder maybe happends to women once every 8-10 years, so very safe
