How safe is Zug for female travelers?

Solo travel

I personally enjoyed the simplicity that came with visiting Zug, but it’s definitely a bit on the boring side surprisingly. But overall it is quite expensive but also has beautiful scenery and relatively easy to navigate public transport.

Zug is like most citys in switzerland really safe. Crime rates are really low and it is safe to walk through the city at night alone. To some it might be a bit uncomfortable because the city isn‘t too busy at night and you can find yourself walking in streets with barely any people.

Zug is a very welcoming city. We have a fantastic open-minded community. The authorities are doing a great job of keeping our people protected! The App is asking for more things to write but our city keeps me breathless and speechless. This is my hometown. Although I haven’t been born here, I grew up here and I absolutely love it. If you like Zurich but would appreciate to get away from a hectic big city - Zug is the place for you!

There are a lot of securities at the mainstation. There are some teenagers that might frighten you, but I’ve never experiences something criminal before. Just don’t like at them or provoke them. I feel pretty safe and Zug is a nice city:)
