I don't think this should affect tourism though. Napoli Province murder rate is at 1/100,000; São Paulo and New York are at 5/100,000; Chicago at 17/100,000; Rio de Janeiro 22/100,000. It's one of the safest places out there.
Regarding petty crime, I'd guess it's way safer than those touristic hotspots in London, Paris or Rome.
