Φωτογραφία από Fede Roveda στο Pexels.com

Florence is generally safe for tourists and moderately foreigner-friendly, though pickpocketing and street distractions are common near the main sights and station. The key watchouts are overcharging by unlicensed drivers, restaurant cover charges, and souvenir sellers pushing fake goods. Violent crime is low; the main risks are theft and petty scams rather than safety of person.
