Is Clermont-Ferrand Safe for Solo Female Travelers?

Clermont Ferrand is a very student-oriented city, so it's generally safe at night and completely during the day. There are lots of bars and places for young people to go out; the streets in the center are rarely empty. Just be careful when going to certain neighborhoods, especially at night, but that's the same everywhere.

In general, during the day it is quite safe, but at night you have to be careful in the areas near the train station; especially Charras street because it has a reputation for being a drug exchange site.

Pleasant city during the day until sunset, where we tend to think every shadow could be one following us. At night, many drug deal rallying points. These days, many crimes reported in some specific districts of the city, especially in the north ones.

On the west side of the city I feel like there’s more safety. On the east side I usually meet more sketchy people and also is more close to the train station which is not a good neighbourhood. There are a lot of people in this city asking money from you, but most of them are very polite. Rue Charras is an unsafe street in my opinion. I never go there at night and I would strongly advise you to avoid it if you can. But overall it’s not a dangerous city it just has some sketchy spots as all the...

Depending on the places and on the time of the day. The center of the city is really safe. But numerous neighborhoods are unsafe, you might get stopped in the street by men asking you for your contacts, making comments on your physical appearance, your clothes... There is also a lot of drug deal

I feel safe in the city, well there are one or two neighborhoods to avoid (like Croix de Neyrat et St Jaques) but otherwise i feel safe walking in the streets and taking the public transports :) I do be cautious when walking alone in the night just in case but nothing never happened!
