Overall, Costa Rica is a safe country; however you must watch out for pick-pocketing and common crimes that occur in any city. For information, see the “Crime Information” section of the Department of State Consular Information Sheet for Costa Rica. Also see the Overseas Security Advisory Council’s Report on Crime and Safety in Costa Rica from the US Embassy and please see their web page regarding Car Theft Preventive Measures. For specific safety information, please also see: http://sanjose.usembassy.gov/uscitizen.
