In you opinion which is the safest city in the Dominican Republic?
That province has one of the lowest number of inhabitants (third lowest).According to crime statistics of 2008 Santiago Rodriguez is the safest province in The DR. For instance during that year there were only two deaths due to violence.
Blackrainbow is correct with regard to the 2009 data.
There are no violent death data for Sos?a for (the whole of) 2009.
And the available data for the Puerto Plata Province are not that good (5 killings per moth).

I'll guess that's depending of who you are, how you behave and act, and who you like to hang out with.
The rate of violent deaths per 100,000 inhabitants gives a truer picture.

We are doing all we can to rectify that situation.
$900?Can anyone provide any new updates on this topic. We are relocating to the Dominican Republic in late June with a 6yr old child and I need to know the safest city/town to live in. We are open to anywhere as long as it is safe and we can easily get to stores as we will not have access to a car for some time while we save. (We will be relocating from the U.S.) Budget is under $900 USD. Thanks so much. Also, any suggestions on where to purchase furniture, a good household items shipper and anyone to ship snub nosed dogs?
