Ukraine has been torn and bruised by Russia's war for nearly three years and yet in Ukrainian cities you'll never see scenes like these from the USA below. 

Ukrainian cities are clean, low-crime, there are strong social networks and cohesion; the only real dangers is Russian and Iranian shit from the sky.  

If you look at a crime map of Ukraine, you would see that in the past decades criminality and social problems were significantly worse in Eastern Ukraine, places long occupied and devastated by Soviet Russia—places where Communism broke the social fabric and destroyed churches. But since Ukraine's 2014 Revolution--in which the people pulled themselves away from the Kremlin orbit--crime and disorder began to decrease year by year.
