Very safe. We also live in a very safe neighborhood. Some areas are less safe like the neighborhood tuinzicht. But you can bike safely at night. Just be careful like in every city. But not as dangerous as other parts of the Netherlands

Breda is generally very safe, but exercise normal precautions. Lock up your bike, and be careful around strangers, especially at night. People are very friendly and usually welcoming, but there are always exceptions.

Breda is a fun and social city, but like most places it has its dark sides. I tend to stay away from these sides at night or I travel with a friend. Nothing ever happened to me badly, only name calling or following. But this is by the people who are mentally ill, there's usually always cops nearby or other people who can help. But most of the places are and feel save.
