I feel safer walking outside at 2am in Cambridge than at 8pm in my home town :wink:

I am considering applying to Cambridge but how safe is Cambridge? I would like to know how current (or past) Cambridge students feel about the environment there and how safe it is as the safety aspect is making me hesitant about applying to Cambridge, or in fact universities that require me to move out.

It's safe relative to a large city. The centre is fairly compact, and, during term, there will be plenty of people around. College accommodation is typically well secured. Where do you live now?

The most dangerous aspect of Cambridge, IMO, is their insistence on standing on the raised and slippery part of the punt. In Oxford, we understand mechanics :smile:

In terms of where the uni is located, you got nothing to worry about with mainly neeks around you. You won't ever have to go Arbury so its very unlikely you will feel threatened, although if your real Arbury is just as safe if not safer :colone:
