safe in the city at night. but it becomes moderate in rural areas. its kinda unsafe in rural areas because of peoples mindset. even from women. the women are the one to judge first in rural areas. otherwise cool place.

I feel cities tend to be more safe as they are more developed and have streetlights and visibility at night.In the morning I feel this is a really safe place for everyone.I feel travelling at night is the time to be cautious.

Thiruvananthapuram has been a clean and safe city for me all these years. Haven't experienced any threats so far, and i usually go out alone at dark. People are helpful in most situations. One of the safest places in India.
