The district behind the railway station, and the one Vilnius's own city government singles out: its published profile of Naujininkai describes greater social exclusion, a weaker sense of security and a lack of quality public space, specifically in the areas next to the railway and the industrial zone. That is the municipality's own assessment of its own district, which is a stronger source than a traveller forum. Arriving by train puts you here; the walk into the Old Town is short and the caution is the station surroundings after dark.

Search accommodation here on Booking.com →
Booking.com has no separate search area for this neighbourhood, so this link searches the whole city rather than just this area.
This rating comes from a structured local-source assessment. This specific area was reviewed against credible local sources — local and national news, municipal and police-published material, and official surveys where they exist — and the signals were consolidated across sources rather than taken from any single report, with the reasoning and the sources shown above. Vilnius publishes no comparable neighbourhood-level crime dataset; where a city does publish one, Wandroz uses it instead of an assessment. Where a review finds nothing documented, that is recorded as no findings rather than as a safety rating.
Frequently asked questions
Is Naujininkai safe?
Wandroz currently rates Naujininkai in Vilnius as an area where the review found nothing traveller-relevant to report during the day and roughly average compared to other neighbourhoods in Vilnius at night. This comes from a structured local-source assessment: an area-level review of credible local sources — local and national news, municipal and police-published material, and official surveys where they exist — consolidated across sources rather than taken from a single report. Vilnius publishes no comparable neighbourhood-level crime dataset; where a city does, Wandroz uses it instead.
Is Naujininkai safe at night?
At night, Naujininkai is rated as roughly average compared to other neighbourhoods in Vilnius. If you're unsure, it's worth checking recent local reviews for your specific street or block, since a neighbourhood-wide rating can't capture block-by-block variation.
Is Naujininkai a good area to stay in as a tourist?
Naujininkai's day rating (an area where the review found nothing traveller-relevant to report) is the more relevant one for typical daytime tourist activity; check the night rating too if you'll be out late. Note that the Booking.com link on this page searches Vilnius, not Naujininkai specifically: Booking does not list this neighbourhood as a destination of its own, so check each property's address against the map above.
Is there official crime data for Naujininkai?
Not an official government crime feed — Naujininkai's rating comes from Wandroz's own current local/national press and survey research for this specific area instead (see the note on this page for what was checked and the sources used). An absence of recent negative coverage is treated as inconclusive, not as proof the area is safe. If you live in or know Naujininkai well, you can suggest a correction using the link below.
