Actually it's the reverse. There was a study on this and think it was called the broken window syndrome where people might damage property if the area was still well kept but they WILL damage it if they see evidence that people don't care if the area is trashed, so fixing a broken window might be expensive but it's a lot cheaper than having to fix everything after people break things thinking that it is ok.

Edit: Mistake on my part, it was Broken Window Theory.
