I was wondering if someone with experience can speak to the reports I have been reading about the violence in Belize. While looking for property I fully expected that things such as home invasion robberies or armed robberies would be a little more prevalent, but I was alarmed to hear of things like rape and sex assaults on women simply riding their bikes and taking public transit, or cabs. I don't feel like bringing the woman I love to a country where she has to act as though she is a second class citizen or ask her to give up some freedoms would be right. Is this a case of being smart and safe in an environment, or is this a bigger issue? I have attached the link to the article: https://www.osac.gov/pages/contentreportdetails.aspx?cid=12320
