Areas to be cautious

- Certain less-developed courtyards or poorly lit streets late at night, especially in peripheral districts.: While Voronezh is not a high-crime city, these areas can feel isolated and increase the risk of petty crime or unwanted attention, particularly for solo travelers.
Insider tip: Take advantage of the extensive public bus and trolleybus network; it's the most economical way to get around and observe local life, but be prepared for potential crowding during peak hours.
