I don't think there is _one_ root cause. But I can tell you that burglary is a symptom, and seeing increases in it year over year (outpacing population growth) is a sign of systemic problems.

Burglary rates have dropped precipitously in the past 30 years from ~1250 per 100k to ~300 per 100k.

LOL. There's no reason a lot of times. We have a major "joyriding" epidemic in my city and it's just idiot kids making tiktok videos for fun.

Society probably needs to have a frank conversation about if things like TikTok are a net benefit or not.

TikTok is fine. Criminals need to be locked up in a prison.
