Is there a lot of crime in Tokyo?

Answer this Question

We asked people if there is a lot of crime. They answered...

"Tokyo is generally regarded as a safe city in terms of crime. Crime rates in Tokyo are lower than in many other major cities around the world. Violent crime is very rare, but petty crime such as pickpocketing and purse-snatching does occur in crowded areas, so people should take the usual precautions against becoming a victim," mentioned another expat when asked about moving to Tokyo, Japan.
