Thievary is fairly common, cars/bikes being stolen are also routine. However, that is not to say it's rampant. The vast majority of AUC will go through their time on the island with no problems.

Precautions? The same you would use in the middle of a large US city. Always keep your doors locked. Don't leave your windows open if you don't have to (no matter what floor you live on). Keep your valuables out of plain sight. Exercise COMMON SENSE. Don't walk down dark alleys. Don't be confrontational. Go in groups. Be aware of your surroundings. Don't take candy from strangers.
