Is Prague safe for foreigners?

Neighborhoods to avoid

• you want bargain rent
• you want new towers
• you want old-world beauty first
• you want the cheapest central option

Safety discipline

• Central furnished rentals often carry a heavy convenience premium.
• Older historic apartments can have awkward layouts, heating costs, or poor insulation.
• International habits reduce the perceived value quickly.
• The citys beauty can hide the fact that premium living still costs real money.

Safety

• Fallback ExpatPrice safety baseline. City modifiers currently penalize nightlife exposure, scam density, and road-risk context rather than copying crowd-sourced rankings.
• Very comfortable for most expats, with little daily stress beyond cost and old-building quirks.
