I cannot find the actual FBI crime stats for the metro area; best alternative is a 2013 article, now out of date, of course, at this site, which provides the sole reason why I'd prefer not to locate in the metro area:
San Juan Crime
Looking for retirees who have settled into neighborhoods they've found safe and complete with nearby amenities, i.e., where the necessity of public transportation is limited.
Looks to me like Guaynabo is about it. Seems to have two hospitals, Professional and Metropolitano, but if these are like most in PR, they are below average.
I am semi-retired and work at home, so I do not travel outside the home other than routine shopping. At my age, the beach is farthest from my mind. Dorado might still be safe, but no way to get into San Juan; I don't drive.
Isla Verde and Condado might still be the safest with more police presence, but who knows.
So, if you're happy with where you are, I'd like to know about it.
My first encounter with PR was 45 years ago. Used a condo on Magdalena Street. Building is still there, but I'm sure the neighborhood is nothing like it was then.
