MODERATORS
I think a correction is in order: petty crime such as what you have described is indeed low, but organized crime is through the roof. Far higher than in countries considered 'the west'. Scammers mainly. So much so they've had to expand to neighbouring countries in the south/southeast to expand their 'market reach'.
