Are there any data on the incidence of theft in airports' airside areas?

'Secure' applies to the TSA's understanding of 'free of weapons and other stuff that is not allowed to be carried on an airplane'. It has no relation to 'crime-secure' or even 'crime-reduced'.

It is a different question if thieves would consider this a good area to work in; as they would have to show an ID when entering, and will probably be video-recorded in the terminal, it would be quite risky - even being seen by a by-stander gets you caught for sure, as there is no simple running-away possible. Therefore, most professional thieves would probably roam in other places.

[consider also how easy it is to walk into any airport to the luggage belts, pick some nice suitcases, and leave - but it's not happening much. Obviously, the video-taping makes it quite uninteresting for thieves.]
