Burglaries are becoming increasingly rampant throughout the United States. The FBI estimates over 2.2 million burglaries occur each year–that’s one burglary every 14.6 seconds. Here are some other frightening statistics:

• Most burglaries take place between 10 AM and 3 PM and are predominately committed by men.
• Sadly, according to the FBI’s own records, the arrest rate for burglars was only 13% last year.
• The average dollar loss per burglary was $2,079 or 4.1% of the median household yearly income.
• Single-family detached homes are more likely to be targeted by burglars because there are generally more access points and more places for a burglar to hide.
• Homes located in the center of the block are more likely to be burglarized than corner houses. This may be due to the extra visibility of houses on corner lots.
• The typical burglar lives within 2 miles of the victim, and may even know the victim(s).
• Regionally, the south accounts for 47% of burglaries. The Midwest and west each account for 21% of burglaries, and the northeast accounts for the remaining 11%.
• A home without a home security system is three times more likely to be broken into than a home with a security system.
