Angers is a very student-oriented city; there are often a lot of people in the streets at night in the center, which is reassuring. When you move away from the center, you might feel more alert, but nothing has ever happened to me. If you can, avoid the area around the train station at night.

Angers is a wonderful, dynamic city. More than a third of its inhabitants are students. As far as security is concerned, I've had 2/3 unfortunate incidents, but nothing serious. In the evening, there's no problem going out and returning home alone. Sometimes, people even offer to walk a little way to make you feel safer.

Little town, globally safe even at night. Went home pretty much drunk a few times by walking and using the night bus and never had a problem. A few problems around the train station, many homeless (avoid this place by night if possible).

I live in the heart of Angers near the train station. The area is really good and clean. I stay out late at night, and come home alone at 3 am or 4 am. The public transport is well connected and safe to use.

It's a really cute city and pretty safe, there is not that much to do but there is some museum, bar and stuff like that. You have to be a bit careful at night but I think like every other city .
