That's your problem and answer there.

Crime is born out of poverty. Gangs are formed in low income places. Joblessness causes crime.

On the other hand, wealth causes crime as well. Just a different kind.


Crime and troublemaking is reduced if the slums are cleaned up and people are given a chance to become a productive part of society.

There are always exceptions. Some people will just be bad. My example is just a generalization.
