Yeah guess it has to be.
I'm originally from a very low income area, low population density but theft was super low, in cities its naturally higher as there more opportunity to acquire and move on, but never ceases to surprise me.
Having spotted thiefs, researched and/or followed them, the ones I've tracked down don't lead a life where theft is a necessity to get by. Obv just a handful of examples that I've witnessed, but still those kids were well dressed, clean, just sad that this is the path they've been put on
In a society like ours why wouldn't it be about money (or things their families can't afford)?
