I think the obvious implication is: "Low costs, relative to income, for basic commodity items, result in low crime rates."

Electricity, food, and gasoline (petrol for my British friends).

I would not doubt if there was a connection between crime and leaded gas. I was just about to mention the Cosmos episode. Clair Patterson deserves a giant statue for what he did. One made out of lead.
