minutes ● One particular offence that has been on the rise is offence against
property ● A report from February this year even named WA as the home invasion
capital of Australia

slide 4: The Trouble Suburbs ● In a recent report Armadale was named
the worst suburb for home burglaries in
2015 ● Other suburbs with high rates of break-ins
included Gosnells Baldivis Balga and
Rockingham ● What makes these numbers scarier is the
fact that many of the same suburbs Armadale Gosnells and Rockingham
are also some of the worst suburbs for assaults alongside Fremantle
Midland and Northbridge
slide 5: Therefore if you’re living in one of these areas: ● Armadale ● Gosnells ● Rockingham ● Baldivis ● Balga You will want to be extra vigilant about protecting your house and prioritising
your personal safety.
slide 6: How To Prevent a Break-In ● When discussing the rise in home contents claims following burglaries
one insurance manager said many break-ins occurred simply because
doors or windows were left unlocked ● Even some candid interviews with
thieves themselves revealed a similar story:
that home break-ins are often opportunistic and
thieves will target houses which are easy to
get into ● If getting into a house looks like it will
take longer than 15 minutes thieves will usually give up
