The short answer
SNIC reports one intentional-homicide victim in Colón department in 2025, with a published rate of 1.3 per 100,000. It also reports 266 robberies and 343.9 per 100,000 for that department. These figures cover a wider area than Colón city and do not rank neighborhoods or predict personal safety. Inspect the property, street and regular journeys before deciding where to live.
- Department, not city. Keep the SNIC geographic scope clear.
- 2025 figures. The published rates use their own population projections.
- No area ranking. Check actual streets and journeys rather than inferring neighborhood risk.
