That's circular reasoning. We get it, you don't want to be poor, nobody wants that, but it's not entirely clear why society should humor your desire to concentrate crime in areas other than where you reside. If anything, crime in rich areas should be more tolerable since rich people have higher capacity to defend themselves, higher economic tolerance to property crime (are insured, have savings etc.), and higher political influence to have something done about it, leading to less crime overall.

I.e crime is not a characteristic of poverty or the poor, but a specific policy failure in dealing with it.
