It's safer than other big cities in France, but it's still France so it's a bit dangerous if you're a woman alone in the night, unfortunately. The city center is okay, as long as you avoid some dark streets or some quarters it should be fine.

It's a quiet little town with quite a few retirees. Not exactly a party town, but you can still find some nice little places, quite historic with a beautiful cathedral and historic center, a few shops, close to the sea and the countryside.

I think it's not a big city so there are no really dangerous people, but I can't say that it's more or less dangerous compared to other cities. Personally, I have never been verbally or physically assaulted regardless of the country. But Quimper is a small town that has its negative and positive points, the French can be tough, mean when they drive but I never felt in danger.
