Solingen is a pretty safe City. Of course, as a women I'm still worried somethkng night happen, especially at night, but those are just the day to day worries that i have, despite my location. There are very few incidence regarding safety in Solingen and if there are, the public reacts to them mostly very progrrssive

I actually feel quite safe in Solingen. I've never had any problems with being sexually assaulted or even attacked. It probably depends on the exact place you are in Solingen, you should for example not hang around at the central train station or in some forest alone at night but in general it's a pretty safe city.
