As a large county, areas vary in different ways in terms of safety. As with most commercial towns, Ipswich has been known to become rowdy on Friday on Saturdays, particularly around pub/nightclub close. Nonetheless, with frequent taxis available, visitors can feel secure provided they plan ahead.In other areas, staying safe against the elements becomes more pressing. If you are driving, make sure to drive slow on frosty days, or days with poor visibility, as Suffolk has many country lanes that are regularly used by drivers.If visiting the coasts, or the broads, be sure to tell someone where you are going, and ideally to reserve these areas for daytime.
