Is there a lot of crime in Tel Aviv?

"Tel Aviv is generally considered to be a safe city. The crime rate in Tel Aviv is significantly lower than in other cities in Israel and the world, with most crime being minor property crime such as pickpocketing and purse snatching. However, there has been an increase in violence and drug trafficking in certain neighborhoods in recent years, and travelers should be aware of their surroundings and report any suspicious activity," remarked another expat in Tel Aviv, Israel.
