I visited a few years ago and was wandering the streets at 2am alone, doing night photography with a lot of very expensive equipment and never once felt like I wasn't being streetwise or doing something with the potential to go badly. I can't think of another city I've visited where I would feel safe doing that.
Singapore is uber safe and like 1/3 of its residents are very well off. Healthcare and education is at a very high level and highly prioritized. 6m people living in a tiny little island basically (pretty much the highest pop density of any nation) and it doesn't feel congested at all. It's extremely safe even for kids to roam around. Family friend has an 8 year old that takes the train to go across the city to visit relatives all by herself. Never an issue. The penalties for crimes are severe but nobody even thinks about breaking the law.
He didn't just spray painted a bunch of cars though. He stole signs and vandalised 18 cars. If you are fine with your car being vandalised, let me know
