But there are some advantages for Eastern Europe:
Quote:
A REPORT by the Centre for the Study of Democracy (CSD) on the crime trends in Bulgaria showed that in 2004 the crime rate has been halved compared to 2001.....
The most important factors for the decreasing crime rate are the fall in unemployment; the aging of the population and the reduction of the number of young males (15-25 year olds) due to low birth rate and emigration; the emigration of many criminals to the EU after the establishment of a visa-free regime with most European countries; and the anti-crime efforts of the police and the judiciary.
