One of my grandparents recently said they were scared of going to stores because there might be a swarm of thieves that come in and wreck up the place, when I pulled up crime statistics that showed it was around the same levels as the 60s they responded with “Well its different and worse now because there are mobs of people.”
Usually ive seen the opposite. Its always the suburbanites who are terrified of crime even though it rarely if ever happens to them

It is 100% of the time the opposite.
There is literally no reason to be within a city if you feel this way. Costs more than the burbs for rent.
But this was probably the first time in here life she wasn’t surrounded by whities
