It's a small town, there are people everywhere and literally nothing can happen. I've never heard of someone getting mugged, robbed, sa'ed. Yeah, its possible that someone on the street can stop you and tell you you're beautiful, but he's never going to do nothing more, maybe ask about your social's. Overall its safe.

Overall it's okay! As a small town it's safer then the capital. As an LGBTQ+ person or a women is not safe for night walks. No night public transport but during the day there is always a person for the tickets so you won't be alone. Also for people with physical disabilities it can be difficult.
