What is Crime?

Increases with population

Crime increases alongside your city's population. This means crime will rise naturally the longer the game goes. You must build Watchtowers or pass laws to prevent it.

Increases with Lack of Goods

Lack of Goods will make Crime rise in your city, thus it is important to have enough of them. Goods are created in the Industrial Districts, and can't be made unless there are materials in the city.
