Sure, though if we're talking about crime, inequality is probably the strongest correlation to crime rates.[0]

"In industrialised societies, the prevalence of exploitation, in the form of crime, is related to the distribution of economic resources: more unequal societies tend to have higher crime, as well as lower social trust."
