Felt very safe, except commons at night. Food is average not a lot of good ethnic good. Don’t recommend night life though the salsa dancing at luna’s is nice. House parties are better than going clubbing. I recommend the nature highly! All the trails and walks etc are gorgeous

Ithaca is a fairly safe place to travel to, we have a very competent police force, however traveling as a woman, I’m always stressed about safety, but I have had no reason to think that I am necessarily unsafe walking around ithaca or taking public transit.

Ithaca is pretty safe especially around the Cornell and collegetown area! I used to work at a printing press downtown so sometimes walked back after 1am , but I would avoid walking in the downtown area itself after dark. Most buses also stop running after midnight so that might be a consideration for those who rely on public transport. Rideshare ISNT always reliable at night in my experience. There is a fair share of robbing and breaking into homes but I’ve personally never experienced in the two places I’ve lived at in Ithaca.

Hello! I love to travel and learn about how other cultures live. I backpacked around Europe when I was 21 and met my future husband in Ireland when we pitched our tents next to each other. We are still happily together after 40 years - so meeting folks while traveling CAN change lives and create lasting friendships. I am a friendly and energetic 62 year old and enjoy exploring new places, learning the history, hanging out in cafes, hiking, swimming, biking and eating healthy foods.

Hi! I’m 18 traveling around Europe and wanting to meet new people! I love art museums and walking around seeing sights, one of my favorite things to do is take pictures of almost everything I see. I’m also into literature, poetry and music. I’m very interested in nightlife in the places I travel to, so if you want someone to party with at night, and get coffee in the morning, I’m your girl!
