I felt very safe while in Minneapolis. I only use public transportation and found it easy and affordable. There were a lot of food options, including many vegetarian friendly options. I stayed near Target Center and found the neighborhood walkable, friendly, and relatively affordable.

I’ve lived in Minneapolis for 7 years. I’ve lived pretty close to downtown and haven’t felt unsafe. There hasn’t been crime that I’ve observed in my area. Though I wouldn’t leave your car unlocked but otherwise I haven’t had any issues.

i’ve lived in minneapolis for 20+ years since i was born. i’ve been in uptown, longfellow in south minneapolis, and the marcey holmes area and can count on less than two hands how many times i’ve felt unsafe.
Posted: April 26, 2026When ICE isn't here I'd say it's decently safe during the day, be careful traveling here right now if you do not appear / are not white. During the later evenings, especially on weekends, things can get rowdy downtown, so be careful.
Posted: April 22, 2026I feel very safe walking during the day as a women, but I would procede with extra caution at night in downtown areas. There are plenty of beautiful walking areas and lakefront areas that are very safe.

Hey girlies! I’m thinking about getting a frontier go wild pass! Most of my trips would involve me staying in a city for a one night. Just looking for a couch to crash on in some of my ✨favourite✨ cities! A little about me, I’m very very girly In the way that I love pink and sparkles. I’m very much a girls girl! We can have a talkative girls night but if you need time alone, I’m happie to keep to myself quietly. I’m a very understanding person, and probably won’t judge you for anything unless you are maga or unkind.
