Hello! I needed some quick advice about what I’ve discovered may be a predicament in my summer plans. I’m volunteering in Athens this summer and will be staying in Omonia during the duration of my stay (my volunteer accommodations are provided for me there). It was only upon further research that I discovered that apparently this neighborhood doesn’t have the best reputation? I wish I didn’t have to be concerned about this but I’m a small 19 year old female alone abroad and I wanted to know if this neighborhood is truly bad enough to warrant me moving locations.

Would y’all say it is or is it more of a “keep your wits about you” location (which honestly, any place is when traveling alone I’d argue).
