Bristol is a fairly safe city to travel to.
The crime index here ranges from low to medium.
The main problems are related to drug trafficking and vandalism.
In this city, it is enough to follow basic precautions to avoid most of the problems.
The areas of St. Pauls, Sheirehampton, Knowle or Eastville can be more dangerous, especially at night.
Poorer neighborhoods such as Southmead and Hartcliffe can be frightening off with a large number of beggars, but they are usually not dangerous and will get rid of you if you ignore their requests.
Don’t mess with drunk people, especially football fans.
Clifton and Redland has more burglaries on the Upper West / Center side than the rest of the city as there are many large family homes.
Be careful also when traveling in your car or just crossing the road – Bristolians are not very good at observing traffic rules.
Despite the fact that serious crimes do not usually happen here, you should not forget the usual precautions: avoid walks late at night, do not shine with a lot of expensive things and devices, do not carry a lot of cash with you, and keep an eye on your belongings and your surroundings.
