85 percent of women in Amsterdam avoid specific places in the city because they feel unsafe, AT5 reported after surveying over 2,100 Amsterdam residents. Men included, around 70 percent of Amsterdammers have areas they consider dangerous.
On average, Amsterdammers give how safe they feel in the city at night a 6 out of 10. But that comes with the warning to avoid certain places in the dark. City parks were most often mentioned, specifically Vondelpark, Sarphatipark, and Oosterpark. “You have less of an overview there, and there are fewer people around,” one respondent said about going to a park at night. “If something happens, you have less chance of getting to a safe place or of being able to talk to someone. Then I do feel like something could happen.”
Other risky areas mentioned were industrial estates, shopping streets after closing time, bicycle tunnels in various parts of the city, and the areas around train stations. Transformatorweg in the West district, Vliegenbosch in Noord, Christoffel Plantijnpad in Nieuw-west, and the section of Rozenburghlaan and Weesperzijde in Amsterdam Oost were specifically mentioned.
“There are places in Amsterdam I prefer not to go after dark. The atmosphere on Leidsestraat and Kalverstraat can be very grim after the shops close,” a respondent said. Another: “I find bicycle tunnels difficult, and I avoid them as much as possible after dark. I prefer to take a detour then.”

Maybe we just need Trump as President of the World when he finishes with America.
National guard.......oh.
Remember when Hillary Clinton and Barack Obama killed Khaddafy, and smuggled his regime’s weapons to Al Qaeda in Syria, to start a civil war against Assad - and then millions of African and ME muslims started showing up on Western Europe’s borders?
Hmmm. Is there connection to this story here?
They need to send in police women decoys, arrest offenders and deport. Rinse and repeat.
Gee, Wally, I wonder if there’s some sort of common denominator that people cite as their reason for not feeling safe.
They voted for it.
Yup.
Excellent idea.
True.
Americans have done the same thing over the last 60 years, some of us are big city kids who are old enough to watched it happen.
It isn’t just TV that drove Americans to stay behind locked doors at night and abandon nighttime public spaces and cities.
And 90% of those 85% likely voted for and endorsed the invasion. So thankful to God for my ancestors who got out of there in the late 1800’s.
Shame. It was such beautiful quaint friendly city last time I visited in 2017. Great beer and lotos and lots of street-side bars and cafes. I wonder what has changed?!
So, they’re finally learning (the hard way)...
Left Looney leadership is the same the world over.
