"Like many tourist destinations, Jaco does experience some level of crime. The most common types of crime are petty theft and pickpocketing, particularly in crowded areas or on public transportation. Break-ins and car thefts have also been reported. Violent crime is less common, but it does occur, particularly in areas known for drug trafficking. Tourists are advised to take precautions, such as not displaying valuable items, using reputable transportation services, and avoiding isolated areas, especially at night. Despite these issues, many visitors to Jaco have enjoyable, trouble-free stays. The local authorities are working to improve safety and security in the area," wrote a member who made the move to Jaco, Costa Rica.
