I have been a lot of places in the world and I do not know any city anywhere that I have ever been where I would feel perfectly safe walking alone at 2am. Chisinau with a population of nearly 1 million is it.. the one and only. Its not only Chisinau, I have been all over Moldova and I have not seen any place where I have ever felt in even the slightest uneasy about my personal safety.
Moldovans are simply not aggressive people. The only time I have ever seen or heard of any person on person violence is either drunks that probably know each other or family disputes. I have walked at night by myself in areas of old soviet era apartments that externally look like the worst tenements you might see in South Chicago, down narrow alleys and through narrow pathways between building that are just wide enough to walk through.
Chisinau has huge bazaars, so big you can get lost, so when you go there unless you are alert and take precautions, you might fall victim to a pickpocket.
