The Vatican has a population of about 800. With 1.5 crimes per citizen, Vatican City has the highest crime rate in the world. However, this is not a matter of priests of other residents of the Vatican running amok and robbing banks or mugging tourists. The vast majority of these crimes are caused by pickpockets who come from outside the Vatican to prey on the thousands of tourist and visitors who come to the Vatican on a daily basis. It is a virtual paradise for the pickpocket. Another crime is shoplifting in the duty-free stores of the Vatican. Only one drug arrest has ever been made in the Vatican. Since the Vatican has no penal system to prosecute these criminals, they are escorted outside the Vatican and turned over to Italian police.
