Really nice to be for everyone and lots of students. Very authentically dutch. Some crime but not much. Lots of different cultures. Sometimes large groups of men in the city center, best to walk around them, not agressive. Not alot of homeless people.
Posted: October 20, 2025It’s fairly safe although there are some very small alleys in the city that I would avoid at night. Just use common sense basically and avoid certain places in the dark. Otherwise haven’t really experienced any trouble

I think Zwolle is a safe town. It’s nothing like Amsterdam. People living here gave an average score of 7,4 out of 10. Sometimes bad things happen, but the frequency is low. I feel pretty safe here myself.

About me
: Hello! I’m Astrid ( aka the Ginger) a passionate vegan chef and the founder of Culinaire Connectie, where I craft plant-based meals that celebrate flavor and creativity. Alongside running my business, I work as a caretaker for children, a role that brings me immense joy and purpose. When I’m not in the kitchen or caring for little ones, you’ll likely find me out hiking through nature, diving into new underwater worlds, or spinning to the rhythm of Cuban salsa. I’m always up for meeting new people, sharing stories, and building connections over good food and good vibes. Every month, I love hosting dinners for friends, bringing people together through delicious, plant-based dishes that I create. Looking forward to connecting and sharing a meal (or dance!) soon!

About me
Hello! My name is Mirte, and loving travelling! I lived in Ireland for 3 years and made it a home away from home. Recently bought a rooftop tent and I'm planning a big Irish roadtrip in the summer to further explore and visit friends. Can't wait! I am an art teacher at a college and am a volunteer at the local concert hall, so I get to see all the good gigs. I'm open to meeting travel buddies and also looking for someone to mind my cat here in the Netherlands when I'm away.
