A new analysis of police data by the Royal Victoria Automobile Association (RACV) found that residents of a postal district in southeastern Melbourne had a 1 / 27 chance of burglary, the Herald Sun reported.
It is reported that during the fiscal year 2017 / 18, the worst burglary rate in Melbourne's metropolitan area was in the 3978 postal area, with one out of every 27 homes being stolen. However, the high burglary rate in the postal area may be associated with more activity in building new homes here, and new equipment and configuration items in vacant properties will be targeted by burglars.
Other places vulnerable to burglary include the 3047 Postal area, where one out of every 30 homes is stolen and one out of 31 in Tigrisrester (Diggers Rest),.
The most vulnerable area in the state to burglary is the 3629 postal area, where one out of every 23 homes is stolen.
On the other hand, the safest urban area in the Greater Melbourne area is one burglary for every 228 homes in (Heatherton), Heathton. This is followed by one for every 208 homes in Cryden (Croydon),. This was followed by Belles (Bayles) / Catani (Catani) / Cuveru (Koo Wee Rup), with a chance of one for every 201 households.
Crime rates in Victoria have fallen to their lowest level in five years, with non-aggravated burglaries down 17 percent since 2017 and aggravated burglaries down 10 percent, according to police data.
In recent years, the police have worked to reduce the number of burglaries at the strategic and regional levels, said the head of the state police, Grigni (Peter Greaney). In order to solve the problem of burglary in the district, the police have stepped up their police forces in vulnerable locations and cracked down on those who committed repeated crimes.
Although the crime rate has fallen, 83 percent of respondents still believe there is a "crime problem" in the state, according to a survey by the Royal Virginia Automobile Association. Four people said crimes were frequent in their areas.
In addition, respondents said they were most concerned about the drug problem in their area, followed by vandalism, graffiti or property damage.
