As everyone else pointed out, stay in the resort areas. Don't wander up side streets and alleys. 80% of the time there would be no trouble, but why chance it. I've never had any trouble in Jamaica, but I travel with locals when I'm there. (though I have been held by guerillas in central america...not fun.)
Overall, I think that Jamaica is overated as a destination as are most of the Islands in el caribe. Too many tourists and too shitty when you're not in a resort hotel. Stay in the resort area, enjoy the beach/surf, get a tan, drink some rum and you'll have a good time.
