Is Metro Manila safe for solo female travelers?

Manila is like NYC, where the hussle and bustle are a norm. Fairly safe, just need to be always aware of your surroundings cos there are still bad people everywhere. Overall, Manila is safe and convenient in terms of food, transport and actually a lot of things to offer.

Metro Manila I would say is generally safe, but crime rates depend a lot on location. BGC and Makati CBD are very safe while I wouldn’t walk alone at night in places like Tondo, Quiapo, etc. In any case, stick to ares that don’t seem sketchy and always trust your gut.
