Petty theft is the main problem. Used to know the lady who headed OIJ - investigative police - (tho she has since moved). She was moaning about being overworked and asked her what the big deal is. Her main concern was 600 cases of credit card theft/fraud - which, considering the population - this is nothing out of the ordinary.
Bottom line - there are a few murders annually etc - but no different to anywhere else - and probably much safer than many places.
