San José Private Investigator

The Republic of Costa Rica has a population of nearly 4.5 million residents, and despite being a developing country, it has one of the more stable governments in Latin America. However, crime is still a concern for locals as well as tourists, with the cocaine and narcotics trade being particularly prominent within its borders. The drug trade results in a ripple effect of petty crime on the streets, including violent crimes against people as well as theft and home invasions. The province of San José is home to 1.3 million people, and its capital city of San José accounts for 289,000 of those residents. The city center is largely commercial, with very few people living there, but with millions passing through on a daily basis. Despite its high population, San José is one of the safest areas in Costa Rica, with both property and violent crime rates being notably low in comparison. However, crime does exist, and local law enforcement may not have the resources to dedicate to a full investigation. If you are traveling through San José, or if you live within the province, and you need a private investigator, contact ICS and let one of our highly trained professionals handle your case.
