Hello all! I live in Texas, and have been doing research about Belize. There are so many beautiful areas & parts of the island that are just beautiful. My husband has heard so much about the island from his boss, (who owns a home there, but lives here in TX). He said it is very family oriented, crime is not as bad as it is here, and that the people are really friendly. Where we live, there is a murder (or two)committed almost daily, the drugs & gang activity is very high. Alot of child neglect, child kidnappings & child murders. Our children are our life, and we want them to grow up in a safe, friendly enviroment. Am I asking too much? Can anybody please give me some honest info, about living in Belize? Which areas are safer for children? Thank-you and God Bless.
