Answer 1

To be honest, I felt really safe in London and I'm from a small town & definitely not used to big cities. Just be alert to your surroundings, use common sense. But I felt safer in London than I have in some US cities.

The most 'dangerous' (not a true danger, but something to watch for) thing when you're coming from the US is crossing the street because the traffic is opposite and flying everywhere. Whatever you do, don't go out in front of a double decker and make sure it really is stopped before you do cross in front!

Answer 2

People exagerate, ok knife crime is bad and such things but there are so many people in London if could be anyone, you just have to lead a normal life and get by, do not let it ruin your experiance what ever! Please listen!

Don't listen to your ipod or go on your phone a lot as people might just try take them off you and run.

Answer 4

London is such a great place to visit, don't worry their crime rates are lower than any major city in the US, just have fun and enjoy the food! It's great, they have really turned around on British culinary
