The figures and statistics regarding burglary and intrusion are not very impressive. The successive increases in recent years suggest that this problem is not being taken seriously.
Even if a drop in the amount of damage is observed, the increase in volume is such that insurance companies find themselves cornered by these phenomena.
The geographical distribution of intrusions and burglaries is also quite revealing. We observe waves breaking in all regions and moving randomly. This migration allows us to put forward the theory that these burglaries are carried out by itinerant people. They travel to all regions of France, bringing their criminal practices with them.
Technology at the service of the user.
When we talk about burglary, we mainly talk about intrusion, privacy, and harm. Far behind the financial damage, the moral and psychological damage is significant.
Victims of burglaries are very often marked for many weeks, months or even years. Knowing that someone sat on your bed and observed how you lived can be a source of deep discomfort.
Our country is among the last in terms of home alarm equipment rates . A low rate of around 11 to 12% is currently being discussed. This figure is well below countries further north or Spain for example.
It’s an annoying habit that we have in France, it is linked to our culture. We make decisions once we are confronted with a problematic situation.
In more than nine cases out of ten, during an intrusion , when a siren sounds, the thief will leave the premises. This ease of deterrence is directly linked to the fact that this itinerant delinquency acts as criminal businessmen. They need a significant volume of thefts and stolen items to achieve their objectives.
