Costa Rica guys.. crime rate?
I was reading that the crime rate is sky rocketing in CR.. is this true? A article about it, seems to be a lot of home invasions and so on. Is this true?

I don't know much about the statistics. However, I do know that if you're smart and you protect yourself, chances are you'll be okay. I live in a condo with 24/7 armed guards, an electric gate that only they can open for you, and high walls with barbed wire surrounding the compound.
The bottom line is that I don't feel more unsafe in San Jose than any other city in the United States. |

Doesn't sound so safe if you have to have armed guards and barbed wire fences. I don't want to live as a prisoner in my own home.

That's actually the standard here. Every place is locked and gated up like that but you get used to that. The reason for this is pretty obvious: anyone that DOESN'T have the bars and the gates will be the target. Coming to Costa Rica and seeing this was shocking/scary at first, but now I don't give it a second thought. You stop seeing all the barbed wire after a while and just see home.

i had a 24/7 guard & 'gated community' Like viki said.. at first your kinda like WTF but after you dont notice it really.
The places without gates & bars are the ones that get hit up. Ive known a few ppl that got mugged (but I know ppl here in mtl that got robbed too so...) Saw a few more shootings in CR than mtl but just dont fuck with the colombians ;p End result - if your smart about things (regardless where you are) you'll be ok.

You get over the barbed wire and bars and armed guards pretty quick. Just stay outa the shady parts of town at night and you're fine.

Yea I guess that kinda answers my question.. Has nothing to do with statistics, but I was looking to move there and I've seen several reports that crime was getting out of hand there. So I figured I'd ask around. I also noticed while looking at houses online, pretty much all of them had huge security gates and so on even saw one that had razor wire across the top of the fence. LoL sorry but that's doesn't seem like it's normal to me. The whole notion of "the ones that don't have it are the targets" tells me a lot. I was planning on checking the place out, but just seems like if crime is going to be a issue especially gang crime, then I'm not going to waste my time.

P.S.
My only real complaint about this country is that I can't get a decent carne asada fucking burrito with some salsa verde. |

I have seen some crime but never been affected. I dont live there but spend about 120 or so days year there. I take cabs but have walked from El pueblo (north of SJ) to barrio dent after midnight. Even from Dent to Lujan in the southern part of the city at 3 am. Not smart but just keep your eyes out and be ready. Just like any major US city. If you'd like to run in fear of your anal virginity stroll through Parque Morazan... the tico with the nice rack and mini skirt will give help you set the new land speed record! Pura Vida
