Are the homes in Casa de Campo the safest luxury beach homes in the DR?

BTW: How safe are the homes at the "Sea Horse Ranch?"

Thanks,
Helpmann :)

Last I checked President Clinton is still alive, he has a home in Casa de Campo. So does George Bush Sr.

I was always sure that Clintons live in Westchester County, upstate NY. I thought I even knew their street address.

It looks like I am so far behind developments!

I think both properties are about as safe as you can get in the DR. The new projects in the east, i.e. Cap Cana and Roko Ki will likely be extremely safe as well...

Casa de Campo is living in the Caribbean, I'm not sure it's living in DR.

Sea Horse Ranch being smaller and with fewer amenities is more like living in an upscale gated residential community - you're forced to get out into the communities unless you pay someone else to do it for you.

"A Place to Live Where the Locals Won't KILL ME". You make it sound as if you'll be surrounded by headhunters who haven't eaten in a while. :ninja:

I think you will find that the country has expats living all over it.
A very small % actually live in gated communities.

Helpmann could live where I live, but I'm not going to tell him where it is because I don't want a neighbour who thinks the locals are out to kill him. :)

There are not beach home in Casa de Campo. We have our own private beach, but there are not villas around it.

Like I usta say back in my real hillbilly days: Sheeeet, man...I done been livin' here longer than mos' o' these folks bin alive!! Not all over, mind, but inside the society, so's to speak...Ain't never had on hassles, an' I ain't never felt threatened, so siree bob!

You lookin' to be 100% safe? Try bein' real nice to folks...live simply, have fun...good fun, not all that booze and sex and stuff...that's where the problems git a goin' ..

HARUMPH! Live safe? Sheeeet, thas how I live all the time!!

JD,
According to another thread (now closed) Helpmann has been given a small vacation. You probably won't get a reply to this until he gets permission to come back so you might prefer to PM or e-Mail him. ~ Grahame.

Don't Worry About Being Shot,or Stabbed In The DR!!!!

Worry about being killed in a car accident! Last weekend,there were 19 people killed in highway crashes!!
10 Dominicans also killed themselves last weekend! Maybe we see something here that they are missing???
