2 asian girlies spend a weekend in Rome, we were outside even until 11pm, but everything was nice! we did feel unsafe a bit, but eventually nothing bad happened, no creepy people, no pickpockets, just unfriendly looks from others lmao
Posted: December 16, 2025We generally felt safe walking out in Rome. There is a great number of tourists, as well as immigrants from Bangladesh, Pakistan and India who work in restaurants, cafeterias etc. Italians generally don't know english so you should know basic words to move around. Rome is not too expensive and offers top food choices

Rome is a very attractive city where you can discover the italian culture very well. People here are really nice and sociable. As a person from minorities I did not experienced racism and I also met many people of my culture (Arabic)

It is a highly recommended city, there is so much to see, museums, parks, monuments. The food scene is also very enjoyable and the people are charming. I will definitely visit again, I still have places to see.
Posted: August 11, 2025I didnt feel safe walking around at night and the city smelt of trash. There was graffiti everywhere and the streets are covered with people just trying to scam you into paying €50 for a small piece of plastic

I felt safe alone in the city center around 9 PM, but crowded spots can be risky because of pickpockets. Always watch your belongings and stay alert around street vendors. Avoid going alone to distant neighborhoods, even during the day

After living for years in Rome, I’ve never felt unsafe, even when I was walking back home at 3am around the main train station Termini. Make sure to be keep an eye to your belongings because there are a lot of pickpockets apparently.
Posted: November 7, 2025During the day Rome is safe, especially on the city center. On the night I don’t recommend to stay out alone, especially if the area is not in the center and quite isolated. Avoid the stations during the night.

Safety in Rome depends greatly on the area of the city. However, you should always be vigilant and careful, especially if you are alone in the evening or at night. I don't consider it unsafe in general, but you still need to be careful.

Rome is a beautiful city to explore, but keep these things in mind (especially if you’re a girl): 1) Do NOT go to Termini after 8 p.m., especially on the Via Giolitti side. It’s known to be unsafe after dark. If you need to change buses at Termini, try to find an alternative route home. If that’s not possible, take a taxi. And if you have no other choice, make sure you’re in a group of at least 3–4 people. 2) Avoid the Vittorio Emanuele area at night ((same reasons as above)). 3) If you need to wait for a bus, places like Barberini or other spots near the city centre are much better options — they stay lively and well-populated even late at night. 4) If you have one, carry pepper spray. Stay safe girls 🫶🫶🫶
