Safety-first room hunting for women in the city
Share each viewing’s address, host name, and time with a friend. Meet during daylight when possible, arrange your own transportation, and keep your phone charged. Do not bring cash or sensitive documents to a first tour.
Verify the room, building entry, window locks, route from transit, and who else lives there. Ask about guests, keys, overnight visitors, repairs, and how the household handles concerns. Leave if the facts change or the host pressures you.
Safety is not an overreaction. A compatible household will respect a careful process.
