Neighbourhood Watch says that opportunity plays a big role in enabling crimes to be committed, particularly burglaries. Most domestic burglaries are committed by opportunists. Criminals will look for homes that:
• seem unoccupied
• have little or no apparent security
• have doors or windows left open, or
• where they think they won’t be seen.
A home’s overall impression will influence whether a burglar targets it. As a general rule, if it looks like there is someone inside, the burglar is likely to go elsewhere.
