Using statistics compiled by the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI), Crime and Security magazine recently released a list of the most burglarized cities in the U.S. This list is based on burglary reports from the past five years. The following cities make the list:
Mobile, Alabama
Compared to other cities of similar size and crime rate, Mobile is less safe. This is mainly because of the presence of gangs. The number of gang members is estimated to be around 300. The majority of felony offences may be related to gang activity.
The Property Crime Rate (PCR) is an index of crime rates that displays burglary, robbery, and property crime. The rate is higher in cities with a larger population.
The FBI defines a burglary as an illegal entry into a building without a valid reason. Burglaries are committed more often in occupied homes than unoccupied ones. In occupied homes, a member of the household is present when the burglary is attempted. In hotels, however, a guest is present during the burglary.
Violent crime rates are higher than the average rate in Alabama. The state has a violent crime rate that is twice as high as the national average. Violent crime in Mobile was 10.6 per 100,000 people.
Homicides in Mobile were on the rise last year. In fact, Mobile homicides have risen for the past decade. This was despite the fact that the homicide rate has been lower in recent years. The number of homicides increased by one last year.
The Mobile Police Department has been making arrests at a higher rate than the national average. It has made 78 percent of homicide arrests.
The Mobile Police Department has been making an effort to fight crime in areas where it has been historically known to be more prevalent. However, they haven’t been able to meet the city’s goal of becoming the safest city in Alabama by 2020.
Laurinburg, Arkansas
During 2019, Laurinburg, Arkansas had a property crime rate that was 2.37 times higher than the national average. This means that Laurinburg is one of the most burglarized cities in the U.S.
Almost 83% of all crimes in Laurinburg are property crimes. These are crimes that involve theft, burglary and other types of property damage.
According to the FBI, burglary is a crime involving the unlawful entry of a building or property. There are three different types of burglaries. The first is first degree burglary, which is entering a home or other building with the intent to commit crime. The second is second degree burglary, which is generally involving commercial property. The third is third degree burglary, which is also a felony. The fourth is fourth degree burglary, which involves breaking into a structure without any other crime.
During 2019, Laurinburg had an overall crime rate of 6,176 incidents per 100,000 people. This number is significantly higher than the crime rate in North Carolina, where the crime rate was 2,729 incidents per 100,000 people.
The FBI also reported that Laurinburg had 201 violent crimes in 2019. This number is significantly higher than the national average of 125 violent crimes per 100,000 people. However, this figure does not include rapes and attempted murders, which are also reported in Laurinburg.
The FBI reported 1.5 million burglaries in 2015 and a total of 286,231 crimes in 2019. The federal government reports that robbery is the second most common type of violent crime in the U.S.
New Orleans, Louisiana
Despite a high population, New Orleans, Louisiana, is one of the most burglarized cities in the United States. New Orleans has a higher murder rate than the national average, as well as a higher rate of vehicle theft.
Louisiana ranks as the most dangerous state in the United States, with a murder rate that is nearly double the national average. The state also has the highest property crime rate in the nation.
New Orleans is known for its multi-cultural, bustling nightlife. It is one of the United States’ most popular destinations. It has been listed as one of the top 10 most visited cities in the country. In addition to its attractions, New Orleans is also known for its multi-cultural population.
New Orleans has a high crime rate, but a lower fatality rate than many other cities. New Orleans is also below sea level, meaning that most crimes are committed during the day. Besides, the city has a relatively high number of security cameras.
Aside from its crime problem, New Orleans is also a popular tourist destination. It is also one of the most popular destinations for live music events.
New Orleans has had the nation’s highest murder rate 12 times since 1993. Despite its crime problem, the city is also known for its multi-cultural population.
The 3rd Ward is one of New Orleans’ most dangerous neighborhoods. It used to be the heart of the city’s African-American business district. But in the early 1990s, the area suffered a massive construction downturn, a situation that also contributed to crime.
St. Louis, Missouri
Until recently, the police department was controlled by the state. But when the city regained control in 2013, it brought with it a number of challenges. It is still short-handed, with fewer officers than authorized and an increased demand for private policing.
The city’s high-crime neighborhoods tend to be concentrated in a few areas. These include East St. Louis, where cold-blood murders are common, and East St. Louis, where racial and socioeconomic segregation is prevalent. These communities are also less likely to have high-quality housing and better schools.
The city’s high crime rates are causing thousands of people to leave each year. The city is also losing its tax base, and its quality of life is suffering.
In addition to violent crimes, property crimes are a significant concern. Several cities rank in the top ten for property crime rates. These rates are especially high in cities that have populations over 10,000.
Property crimes are often more common than violent crimes, but it is important to note that the two types are not mutually exclusive. In fact, some cities have lower property crime rates than violent crime rates.
Crime rates are also not evenly distributed across the city. Residents of some high-crime neighborhoods complain that they are not getting enough police. They also say that minor crimes are prevalent in these neighborhoods. In some neighborhoods, property crime rates are seven times higher than the rest of the city.
Houston, Texas
Several factors go into determining the most burglarized cities in America. These include population size, crime rates, and crime trends. In addition, crime statistics are not reported on a quarterly basis by all cities. These statistics are usually available only for the first three months of the year. This makes it difficult to pinpoint a particular state’s burglary rate.
The FBI has a program called the Uniform Crime Reporting program that provides three subclassifications for burglary. These include unlawful entry, breaking and entering, and larceny.
The most common offenses were larceny and theft. This was followed by destruction, damage, and vandalism. A few other cities in the top 10 include Tulsa, Oklahoma, San Bernardino, California, and Oakland, California.
Houston’s crime rate is the most impressive, but it’s not the most crime-ridden city in America. Houston’s murder rate is nearly double that of the national average. This makes walking alone at night dangerous, and it’s not a city for the faint of heart.
New Mexico is the only landlocked state in the top 10. Although it has a high rate of crime, the state’s burglary rate is the only one on this list that’s not below the national average.
The most burglarious state is Mississippi, which has a rate of 627 per 100,000 residents. While that may seem like a lot, it’s less than the national average.
It’s not surprising that the state with the highest rate of burglary is also the state with the highest rate of murder. Murder rates are typically linked to drug trafficking and gang activity.
West Memphis, Newport, and Monticello, Arkansas
Whether you’re a current resident or you’re looking to relocate, you may be wondering about crime rates in Arkansas. This article looks at the state’s most dangerous cities based on FBI crime data.
Although Arkansas has a very high overall crime rate, it does have some of the safer cities. The state’s most dangerous city is Little Rock, and the state’s safest city is Helena-West Helena.
The city of Hot Springs is one of my favorites in the state. It has a low violent crime rate, but the crime statistics show that property crime rates are high. You’ll want to keep an eye on your cars and valuables!
The best way to protect your property is to lock your car and your valuables. But, the fact of the matter is that you’re more likely to have your jewelry stolen than anything else.

The most significant crime in Arkansas is violent crime, but it’s not as prevalent as the property crimes listed above. Property crime rates are lower than the state’s overall crime rate, but they’re still much higher than the national average.
