We have been having a look at some UK burglary statistics infographics.
Back in 2012, Tesco Compare published an infographic which revealed that homes without BOTH window locks and double locks or deadlocks on external doors were SIX TIMES MORE LIKELY to be burgled.
In 2013, another infographic showed that having a house alarm could add an average of £5162 to the value of your property.
MoneySupermarket.com have also posted an infographic on burglary hotspots in 2012. What they say is that, being on the list doesn't mean that you live in a bad area but in an area that may be targeted by thieves because it is more affluent.
The first thing suggested as the best way to protect your home is installing a security alarm system.
