Perhaps - but other than gun violence, if I went back home several things would be unsafe.
Money can buy a lot of things, but it takes more money to buy a first world lifestyle in India than it takes to do it in Canada (or even the US, as surprising as it sounds).
Buying clean smoke free air and water you can drink out of the tap might not feel like luxuries, but that's priced in here (& even there, this is by no means perfect - see Flint).
And at least, I've yet to be stopped by a cop who wanted a bribe.
