Staying safe
- •In many surveys, Luxembourg has been named "safest country in the world".

- •Railway stations: In the bigger towns and settlements, crime tends to concentrate at and in the streets around railway stations, particularly harassment, pickpocketing or drug offences.
- •Luxembourg City: In Luxembourg City, crime tends to concentrate at nighttime around the central railway station (Quartier Gare), and in Bonnevoie.
- •Note that since 2020 there has been a series of cases of necklace- and watch-snatching. Avoid therefore to wear flashy or expensive looking jewellery in the mentioned areas.
- •Minette: The urban areas of the Minette region have a reputation for being sketchier at night. Follow usual precautions around railway stations.
Staying healthy
- •The food and tap water supply in Luxembourg is perfectly fine and the country's healthcare system is first class.
