How safe is Aberystwyth for female travelers?

Solo travel

I spent 2 nights in this seaside town. At one end of the promenade, there is a castle, and at the other end, there is a cliff railway, which leads up to a hill, from where there are views of the city and the sea. Felt very safe all the time.

Aberystwyth is a very small city with a lot of Student. I feel vert safe, and often come back home really late at night without fear (which is great !!) People are looking for each other, and girls are all so kind <3
