It's actually safer than people say - with the policemen everywhere.
On the other hand, it's also about how crime is tolerated in the society. If I steal your phone, I have a useless device. Unless I sell it to somebody who unlocks it and make it ready for a new owner. And then somebody needs to buy the stolen phone to use it. The more people are open to trade/use stolen stuff, the more petty crime occur.

Right, I think too though that people are where they are because they don't see many other choices. Most people take the ready path. If being a criminal is on that path, so he it.
