Beyond the figures from projects carried out or investments in the development of the city, lies the satisfaction of the inhabitants and the constant increase in the quality of life in the city.
Oradea was voted as the safest city in Romania in 2007 according to the perception of the inhabitants (History and D&D Research) and is keen on keeping this leading place. With a minimal crime rate, Oradea is a place where you can walk in complete safety when leaving a late dinner or after an evening in a club with colleagues and friends. A city that prides itself on the "slow living" attitude, eager to attract corporate tourists for a "stress-free " business experience.
Moreover, in the extremely difficult context created by the COVID-19 pandemic, Oradea was included in the top of the safest European destinations for residents and tourists alike by the European Best Destinations Association. The selection was made due to the measures taken locally for preventing the spread of Sars Cov-2 cases.
Slow living and safe living
The indicators that measure the quality of life are also very encouraging for Oradea: 396,057 sqm of green spaces, trees, parks, lakes; the average time to get from home to work is between 5 and 25 minutes, on foot or by car, respectively between 7 and 35 minutes by public transport. All these indicators are the basis of the city's sustainable governance strategies. This can be seen in the degree of satisfaction of the inhabitants. Beyond numbers and studies, we invite you to ask any passer-by - this will convince you way more than a promotional brochure.
