In my opinion its safe to walk the street but like any large city in the world there are area's you should avoid late at night. I think if you choose a place to live within a short walk to sky train you will have no problems.

I would not think as Bangkok being less safe than Amsterdam for example. There are certain rules that you should consider for every large city in the world. If you stay in popular areas where many people walk around, you should be safe even after midnight.

Safety always depends on personal behavior and actions. Enjoy your time in Thailand and take common sense precautions.

Real life is actually starting in the evening! Night markets, people eating after work, so it will be crowded just about anywhere in the centre. Just stay where more people are and you should be fine. When you are by yourself don't wear expensive (looking) jewelry and leave your golden teeth at home (joking...). In fact, leave all of your shiny jewelry at home (NL), one thing less to worry about.
