Over the years!!!! There has been a influx of poor folks from other Islands, such as Santo dimingo jamaca. You can see that by the people on Island. The government allowed this influx, and I feel it pays the price with crime... I never was afraid to venture out at any time, but hardly go far at night... Sadly there has been casinos hit during the day... Now that scares me, as I like to play now and then, and realize its not safe day time or night time... the police presence and action prevent this from getting better... I wonder if it would be wise to try and weed out the bad seeds, and send them back to where they came... I know not realistic.... Have to just be vigilant if you want to spend time on Island.... Although anything could happen at any time, Hope your not there...
