Is there a lot of crime in Okinawa?

Answer this Question

We asked people if there is a lot of crime. They answered...

"Okinawa, generally has a low crime rate, similar to the rest of the country. Japan is known for its safety and security, and Okinawa is no exception. However, there have been occasional incidents of crime, often associated with the U.S. military presence on the island. These incidents, while relatively rare, have included theft, assault, and other violent crimes. Despite these incidents, Okinawa remains a safe place to live and visit, with a strong police presence and a community that values peace and order. The local government and police force work diligently to maintain safety and security for both residents and visitors," wrote a member who made the move to Okinawa, Japan.
