Punta Cana

Punta Cana is partly covered: three of five incidence categories carry data, and we hold no homicide rate for it, so no composite score is computed.

The one recorded crime figure is robbery at 121.3 per 100,000, but that covers the wider state, was calculated by us from a count and a population, and reflects only reported incidents, so read it as an upper-bound floor rather than a local rate. On official guidance, three governments, the US, Canada, and Australia, place the Dominican Republic at their second advisory level, increased caution, while the UK holds it at the lowest level, normal precautions. Their advisories flag pickpocketing and scams for visitors. In a national survey, 39.6% of residents said they feel safe walking alone at night, a country-wide result.
