Is Padua Safe for Solo Female Travelers?

In the last 4 years I have been here things have changed drastically, they even change seasonally. When it’s fine and everybody’s out and the sun is out till 21, it’s alright. There are very good people too that help whenever you ask. Around the national and academic holidays when all the students go home, it’s like a fricking jungle. The police has started to take some precaution finally. But if you’re ever in Padova, don’t linger around the train station, in via Trieste, and via Venezia. Everyone says Arcella is dangerous but I don’t believe so I lived there 2 years, it was safe. The safest place to be is Portello where all the students are and around Prato. Stay safe ladies and don’t hesitate to ask for help if you need it on the street, people are mostly kind. Just dont ask old people

Overall is a safe city, especially in the old city center area, it’s fine to walk around at night, just be careful and be conscious. You have to be really careful at night around the train station and Arcella neighborhood, I would honestly never go there alone
