I believe it’s safe, of course you have to be careful in the night but it isn’t weird for me returning late past midnight and I haven’t had any problems. Overall coming from another country to Swiss here it’s peaceful but it’s important to stay cautious.

Switzerland in general is very safe. Neuchâtel is also a pretty small city and a lot of people know each other, so I feel very safe around here. I have probably never felt as safe anywhere else. It is also very easy to use a bike as transportation, and I always feel safer when I have my bike with me.

Neuchâtel is a very safe place for women. It's a small town, but with a University, hospital and direct access to the lake. It's calm and beautiful. Come visit here if you want to experience the peace.
