Criminality rates have been escalating in urban areas. What are the reasons? What solutions could be implemented?

#criminality #rates #areas
Criminality is a big problem in urban
areas
 , because of more population than in remote
areas
. It is very easy for
areas
 with a large number of
people
 to commit
crime
Fix the agreement mistake
crimes
show examples
 as it takes longer for authorities to
finally
 make arrests,
for instance
 , there are approximately 2 million
people
 in Limpopo's remote
areas
 many of them know each other in their own communities which make it very difficult for the members of the community to commit any
crime
 unlike in the Limpopo urban area with approximately 4 million citizens. Another reason is urban
areas
 are where
people
 come to work and earn money to take care of families which is why it is a target area for criminals.They rob
people
 of their earnings and material possessions,
Also
 in Urban
areas
Add a comma
,areas
show examples
people
 try to make ends meet and sometimes fail ,
however
, they become victims of drugs
hence
 the town
areas
 result in a rise of too many drugs and drug dealers.Lack of jobs and poverty is other reasons why
people
 turn to criminality, in a well-functioning nation with less unemployment rate the public will not resort to
crime
. For ,example Switzerland is a very well-governed country with fewer unemployed
people
 ,crowds leave cars unlocked and unattended and no one care to highjack cars because the majority of
people
 can actually afford a decent life in that country. In my conclusion ,the politicians and ruling parties play a huge part in avoiding crimes in a nation, a well-governed country with less poverty, and no corruption and looting of public funds is a solution to
crime
 problems.
