Rising Crime Rate in Urban

           There are several good reasons why crime rates are higher in urban areas than in the country side.First of all there is simply more to steal in towns. there are shops,offices,factories and private houses. There are cars parked on the streets. There are people taking money to and from banks and of course there are banks themselves. All these are potential targets for criminals. Secondly, It is easier to escape detention in a town. In the countryside everyone knows everyone else in a given area. Suspicious strangers are soon spotted. In towns, especially very large towns, it is always possible to go to areas where you are not known. in town there are of course policemen, but there are not enough of them to cover every part of the town. I would like kenyan police to do their work so as to stop this crime.
