It’s quite safe town, don’t even remember the last time any crime happened here, town is small and people know each other, so they respect everyone. Town is great in any season, strongly recommended.

Mostly feel safe, but there is a layer of men 45+ often in a drunken state (especially in the evening or on holidays) that makes you feel unsafe around. Unwanted flirting, compliments and trying to get a number are the most common. The locals have pretty strict notions though, and you can always ask for help from the nearest person who can stand up for you
