Arrgh, let's not put this incredible city in such a bad light!
My wife and I were there 3 years ago, and loved every minute of it.
We took your basic precautions: money belt under clothing, money
separate from tickets and passports, always took camera and anything
else half valuable with us wherever we went.  Now, we don't know
if anything would have happened had we not done this, of course.
We were there a total of about a week and had no bad experiences of
any kind, and would jump at the chance to go again.

We did, however, make an interesting observation: you should go
before the tourist season starts.  We came in during mid-May for
a few days, liked it so much that we cut days off the rest of our
trip so we could return for a few more in mid-June.  We noticed
that tempers were shorter throughout on our return.  Still no
problem, but I don't think I want to find out how short they are
in August.
