A very safe town. Of course crimes can happen but it’s very unusual here. The town is very dead during winter and tourists always come in summer. It’s a lovely city in summer that offer music festivals, boat trips, beaches, cute lakes and some shopping and great restaurants such as Montmatre, Antonios and Nivå. A very nice city with kind people. Go in summer!!!

Its a small and cozy city dueing the day and mostly safe with maybe a few creepy men at night but nothing to worry about. As long as you arent out in the middle of the night by yourself you will be fine.
