I think that's quite true. OTOH, houses in 'seedy areas' have
==locks== on the doors, and people use their social and cultural
awareness to keep themselves, and their property, safe.
When you reduce it, I still think it's a culture issue. I didn't run
the experiment at Hacker Dojo, but only due to lack of resources. I
definitely would have added it if I had the extra.
