Why are the Nordic countries so high?

Most thefts here are organised by traveling and professional thieves, mainly from South Eastern Europe.

Since we are wealthier and have trust based societies, we’re probably easy prey for them.
Sadly it’s making us change our ways. I grew up never locking the door. These days you’d be hard pressed finding an open door in the southern parts of the country.

Not just third world immigrants. It’s the descendants of illiterate subsistence farmers who were invited to Europe as cheap labor to build homes after the war. Basically a bunch of dumb inbred religiously conservative morons who don’t have the mental capacity to adapt to western society, only because our governments wanted to get the cheapest labor as possible. It’s not like the Indian expat community is committing crimes who are technically also third world immigrants. If the government only invited college educated urbanites we wouldn’t have these problems to the same degree as we have now with these third gen immigrants.

If dumb conservative hillbillies from the Appalachian came over to Europe as cheap labor, so first world immigrants, I bet we would end up with the same problems as well.

Could also be a reporting issue. In some countries, the police won't really do anything about petty theft, so why even bother? I'm pretty sure, Sweden is not less in reality than Albania.
