Downtown and rich areas are safe. I always lived in the city center when I was studying in Newcastle, and I often forgot to lock the door when I slept at night (some doors there can be locked with a key), so it's okay. Also, girls should not run around alone at night, because you don't know which area is unsafe. Usually fine. My friend lives in a rich area, and their house key is broken and they are too lazy to repair it. They haven't locked the door for over a year. There are many closed-circuit television cameras in Britain, which are relatively safe. As long as you don't go to the slums, Acha will be fine. Newcastle is a famous nightlife city in Europe. Bars are crazy at night, and some foreigners will flirt with little girls when they drink too much. So don't go to the bar street (near the gate) if you have nothing to do at night. There was an LP burglary in the dormitory (too biased). Never heard of other dormitories.
