We know that the primary keys are usually positive integers.

Is it good idea to use uint instead of int as the primary key in data model class?

Example:

public class Customer
{
   public uint CustomerId {get;set;}
   //others are omitted for the sake of simplicity.
}

    The corresponding SQL data type is a signed number, so I’d stick with the int to avoid any surprises.
