Why were towns in medieval Europe dangerous places?
Towns in medieval Europe were dangerous places because they were noisy, crowded, and often unsafe. Pickpockets and theives would always be on the lookout for travelers with money in their pockets. Towns didn't have streetlights, so night Watchmen patrolled the streets with candle lanterns to deter (discourage) criminals. -Carol

Some medieval towns transportations were wagons or carriages. Some people just walked.
