I actually accidentally left my bike beside a busy street last night here in Seoul unlocked. I went back and got it today (Sunday night) and not a single person had touched it. I don't think that it's population density as much as the shared culture of the place you live. I would have totally blamed myself if my bike wasn't there today, and I think it would be stupid to blame anyone else.

Density, shared culture, and perhaps a functioning social services. Thus there is less of a incentive for petty crime, as basic needs are covered via less risky means.
