Alexandria (Virginia) travel safety advice
Alexandria, particularly Old Town, is a safe city with considerably less crime than its neighbor, Washington, DC. While you are unlikely to be the victim of a crime here, you should take normal precautions that you would in any urban area, such as keeping your car and hotel room locked at all times and not walking alone at night.
Be aware that the metro subway system closes at midnight from Sunday-Thursday and at 3:00AM on Friday and Saturday nights. The time of the last train is posted in each station. Metro buses operate 24 hours a day but on a greatly reduced schedule at night. If you anticipate being out very late at night it is a good idea to carry the phone number of a taxi company with you.
