I do not think any expat should be concerned about crimes in Casco Viejo. I am not sure if there is a specific number for crimes against expats in Panama, but the country, including Casco Viejo, has the lowest crime rate against any expats in all of Central America. It is pretty safe here. I do not think any expat should be concerned about crimes in Casco Viejo.

The crime rate against Americans and other expats in Casco Viejo is close to non-existent. Personally, I have never heard of anybody that has suffered a crime in Casco Viejo whether they be American, Canadian, or any other foreigner.
