I read a month ago that Nuremberg is apparently the German train station with the highest crime rate.
I traveled through there twice a month last year and never ever felt unsafe or uncomfortable.
The only slightly disturbing things I witnessed was some guy smoking weed at the platform and a seriously drunk guy offering a lady to help her carry her stroller up the stairs even though he could barely walk.
Also: I wonder how many of the sex crimes were OnlyFans or myDirtyHobby models filming public masturbation videos and shit like that.
