That is a really low rate of crime. It's hard to really know if that is all there is to know for the reason but I guess it's probably just one of the reasons. I wonder if the media there even reports about crimes often because I know it can cause copy-cats.

There are other reasons too of course, like many people are educated in Finland, there is also not massive disparities in wealth (not to the level of the US for example) and in comparison, almost no true poverty - these things affect the crime level also, which in turn makes the work as a police more or less dangerous. Finnish police don't head out each day, worried about whether they will return home.
