    Every last thing on that list is a major tourist destination.

    Maybe we’re looking at this wrong. Maybe it’s not that the US is less likely to be pickpocketed, just for size you’re less likely to be in a pickpocketable area.

      The other part of the comment was that Americans drive everywhere, thus there are less opportunities to pickpocket. Tourists walk around a lot.
