One of the safest places you can be. I am used to taking long walks after 10PM in different locations of the city. Nothing feels off or unusual. Most parts of the city are very quiet after 12.

Safe day and night, even for female solo travelers. 99.9% of locals are nice and welcoming and willing to help to best of their abilities but I would be weary of taking random lifts while hitchhiking.

I really recommend it.
