Most crates don't make use of unsafe, the stuff that I see that does use unsafe is mostly either embedded applications or stuff like the std lib.

And even if you do use unsafe, you can still use it to build 'safe' abstractions on top of. the idea is that your unsafe code is quarantined and abstracted, and you build on top of it. std::collections is a great example of this.
