How is the crime rate in Turks & Caicos islands, Mainly Providenciales?

It depends which part of the Island one is talking about. I know people who are constantly being burgled, but they live at some distance from the tourist resorts (areas like Bluehills and Five Cays). It is prudent not to wander about on foot at night except in the touristy areas where there are other people about, as there are opportunistic robbers at large and there have been quite a few robberies recently and even the odd shooting. (I don't feel that I am being unduly negative here, as these things have been widely reported in the press over the past year or two) However, compared to many islands in this part of the world it is pretty safe and these incidents tend not to have any impact upon tourists, hence the very positive replies from other answerers.
I realise that you are thinking of coming to live in Provo. You will probably be best advised to choose a home in a resort, rather than a lonely house with a romantic view. Take careful advice over flooding risks when hurricanes hit the island (inevitable from time to time). Don't buy anywhere built on a drained marsh.

The crime rate in Providencial Turks and Caicos is very low. You may get some low level crime, like a car break-in. Never leave anything in your car, not even a towel.We left our rental car unlocked most of the time. You should be careful just like you are at home. Be aware of your surroundings at all times. Don't carry your life with you in your wallet or pocketbook.

We were on the island for 10 days and never worried at all.

Grace Bay beach is awesome. The beauty of these islands are all in the water. Be sure to do a water excursion.

Providenciales is safe, have a great trip.

The Turks & Caicos Islands have the lowest crime rate and the highest crime-solved rate in the Caribbean.

I wouldn't worry, have fun!!

Crime Rate??? What crime rate??? The Island is so small, and literally no where to run....I was there a few years back and don't even remember seeing any police.If Im not mistaken the last major crime was in 1957 and the person lost their had for stealing..Really not to worry..If your on a resort, you really don't have to worry about anything..No beggers, no bothers...I had an incredible time there, and I really can't wait to go back..Stayed at Club Med, not the most luxurious but a lot of fun..
