To Jamesj24, I have been to PR many times both on business and on vacation. What you see in the media, in pictures is not all of the picture! Puerto Rico is a country on the edge of bankruptcy and the people that live there realize it. A high percentage of their medical professionals are moving to the States because they cannot get properly paid for their services. Do not take me wrong, PR is a beautiful and vibrant country, but it has issues just like anywhere else. As far as crime goes, any time that you have society, you will have crime. In my years of travel around the globe, crime is everywhere. But again do not take me wrong, if you are concerned with crime to the degree that it keeps you from making a sound decision, then so be it. But live well and be aware of your surroundings and culture and you will be alright.
