I feel pretty safe most of the time in London. I am not worried about walking home alone at night. Yes, shit happens, and yes, there are terrifying shitty people out there, but frankly, fewer in London than in other towns and even in pretty villages I have been in.
Mayor of London, Sadiq KhanI've said it before, and I'll say it again: Ignore the haters. The evidence is clear: crime is falling and London remains one of the safest big cities in the world.
