Use the same judgement you would use in our largest american cities - don't be out late at night alone, for example. Don't be alone, period. If you are at an all-inclusive, you will likely stay mainly at the resort and not be out exploring. Any tours are very organized and are generally on large tour busses with a guide, so you are supervised. Cozumel is one of the safest places you can visit as a tourist, and is just a short way from Cancun. It is an island that is more laid-back and if you are apprehensive at all, I would try going there in place of Cancun. It is a big tourist destination so there are ample all-inclusives and other lodging options. Cancun is a large city but tourists have been safe using common sense.
