Szeged is a safe city, and it may seem small to those coming from big cities far away, but I really like it. It's pretty and safe, much more so than Budapest or Miskolc and its surroundings. It's definitely worth a visit.

One of the safest places i have ever been to, i always go home late and never had a bad experience with men in the streets. Most of the time i go for a walk after 10 pm, and i cross the bridge twice and it feels definitely safe even if there are drunk people, they haven't harassed or come close to me.

Well i live there since when i was born. And i think it's very safe. I never experienced any harassment. I never get robbed or anything. I think the people are nice. Sometimes there are some drunk people in town but i think it's a safe place. But i think you need to be careful every where you go on the earth, so stay safe. Xoxo

It’s a peacefull, clean and safe city. The crime rate is low, you can walking to home at night without worry. The public transport also safe and not owercrowded. The police often patrol, not only in the downtown.
