Italy theft and crime rate is very high.

Some experienced tour leaders usually dressed quite shabbly in an attempt to look poor as these organised thugs would usually target them as they have loads of money on them.

I think only Singapore and Japan are exception. To the rest, this is consider a petty crime.

[WTF]

Med countries like Italy and Spain is quite bad with crime I'm told by my European colleagues.

 

My ex-colleague's camera was pick-pocketed while in Italy but luckily the shopkeeper told him about it. He quickly stop the gal from leaving and the gal just passed the camera back to him like nothing happened and walked away.

 

My customer's camera was a total loss after he came out from an attraction......

its not so much italians, most of the crime r done by eastern europeans who look same as italians. many r gypsies. from georgia, romania etc

[Shull]

I spent 1mth in Italy alone. Mon-Fri for work, weekends travel to Venice, Pisa etc.. Never had any problems with crime..

 

My Italian colleagues told me that northern Italy is generally safe because this is where the economic and industrial heartlands are located, resulting in lower jobless rate. It's the southern parts which has higher unemployment rate, and thus more crime.
