Jerusalem - Post Report Question and Answers
Do you feel that it is safe to walk, run or hike outside? Are there areas where bike riding is possible? What is the availability and safety of outdoor space for exercising? Are these easily accessible?
I have never felt safer in another city. Children walk around everywhere here unsupervised. They use public transportation as young as 5, 6 years old to get to and from school. Our own children will take public transportation independently (our youngest is 12) to go to the Old City or to youth activities. Biking is possible at parks and on bike paths along sidewalks. We didn't bring bikes so I don't have experience with this but there are many bike stores around town and many people ride here. There are many playgrounds and exercise spaces. - Sep 2024
