How safe is Augsburg for solo female travelers?

Family travel

we felt safe during the day but sometimes when it got dark, there were a lot of wannabe-gangsters around the bus stations. but nothing bad ever happened. we recommend pretty much all the sights we visited, the golden room was very pretty and there's a lot of detail so you could spend hours looking at the murals, the fuggerei was interesting, there's a dig site right beside the dome... we lived in an airbnb outside of the city centre, about an 20min bus ride to the main attractions. the busses...

There is a Drug addict hotspot in the park next to Königsplatz. Isn’t unsafe since you won’t be approached usually but you still might feel uncomfortable so you might want to go around the park not inside.

Augsburg is a genuine nice city and the criminal rate is really really low. Sometimes bikes might get stolen, but this is the only thing what can happen. So I hope you enjoy the stay, it’s really lovely city and you don’t have to worry

I feel very comfortable as a woman in the city; however, I wouldn't walk around alone at night, but I wouldn't do that in any city. Most people are very nice and respectful.

Since I‘m living here all my life, I feel very safe. Sadly, I have made some negative exchanges, but not many over the years. Overall, I don’t have any fears when I‘m alone, even when it‘s dark. I don’t need to worry at all.

About me

Hii! 💗✨ I'm Alina, 21 years old, and currently living in Augsburg with my boyfriend. I'm studying Social Sciences there. In my free time, I love staying active. I've been doing strength training for a few years now and regularly go to the gym. Over the last two years, I've also discovered cycling for myself 🚴‍♀️, and in winter, I love hitting the slopes and going skiing 🎿. I recently also got into running🏃🏻‍♀️ One thing about me: I tend to get hyperfixated on new hobbies. Over the years, I've tried so many different things: sewing, making jewelry, painting, clay potter, knitting, and probably a lot more. I also love spending time with my friends. Whether it's partying🪩, or just having a cozy night together. I absolutely love traveling 🌍 My biggest dream is to have visited every country in the world one day.
