Is this safe?

For a 19 and 18 year old to go on a trip to New York City by themselves?
As long as you don't show any signs of weakness when approached by unsavory characters. And stay out of the bad side of town.

Yeah as long as your both Mature and be smart. I went to Cardiff on my own I’m 19 and it was the first time I went and stopped over night somewhere alone.

That would depend on their level of maturity and responsibility

NYC is a perfectly safe city, possibly the safest large city in America.

For crying out loud, this is the age where people often start backpacking across the world. In countries where they can actually get drunk, even. They're old enough to go and die for their country at that point.
If they're sensible, there should be no problem.
I think it would be safe, exciting and enjoyable.

Noo, the rats will kidnap you and take you to the sewers.
@JupiterDreams Silly. 🤭

Nothing is safe, but you have to be an adult at some point XD

Never by yourself. Too much can happen in a big city. 😔🤗

It’s okay but being with others makes it better imo

Of course, they're not kids anymore.

Not to their parents.
I ask seriously, because we still look like teens. :’P @Nunlover
@Hatzy you do know theres young people in newyork right ? It's not like you gonna stick out 🤣

Just have to be smart. Be aware of what areas you are in. Check in with loved ones. Be prepared to keep yourself safe if someone should test to see if you’re weak. Same as any traveling. Have fun!
