I actually lived in Eskisehir for two and a half years. I went to university there and it was the perfect place to be a student really. If you stay too much you might run out of activities but the food and the vibes of the city are great. I felt safe even though I was a woman who lived alone. Kanlikavak and Odunpazari houses, the Porsuk Stream, and the bars, nightlife… I really miss Eskisehir and totally recommend it to ones who are interested to visit!

It is a very beautiful city, student-friendly, prices are reasonable, shopkeepers are very nice, transportation is cheap, it is a small city, you can easily visit everywhere, it is safe, it reminds me of Venice.

This is a really small and intimate city. At night, the streets are completely full of young people, and you won't see any trouble except for fights that break out from minor disagreements. It has very kind and welcoming cafes. The people are helpful, and most of them are well-intentioned. Even theft (pickpocketing) incidents are almost non-existent.
Posted: November 7, 2025one of the safest cities in turkiye for travelers, because it's a student friendly city, the population is mostly young people. The population is friendly to students and young people. They're generally open minded. I wouldn't call turkiye safe overall but eskisehir might be the safest option.

Eskişehir is a small city next to Ankara which is the capital city of Türkiye. It is a fun city and safe. Its population is young. Çibörek and Balaban Kebab are local foods. Talkan cookie is a local dessert. Boza is a local drink.

Lovely city with a good night life. Drunk students can be a bit weird when talking but it's a nice place to live. Police offers are reliable and lost items can be found at least 70% of the time. One of the safest cities in Turkey.
