Vienna burglary statistics: read the figures correctly

Next steps

1. Check the year, area and offence category before comparing burglary figures.
2. Use matching periods and definitions. Recorded citywide reports are not your personal chance of a break-in.
3. Check your doors, windows and accessible entrances; request a property-specific security assessment.

Reading Vienna burglary statistics? Check three details. Start with the year. Then check the area and the offence category. Official figures describe recorded reports. Compare matching periods and definitions. A citywide count is not your personal chance of a break-in. Check your own doors, windows and accessible entrances. Ask for a property-specific security assessment. RIVA Sicherheitstechnik, Vienna.
