Oct. 28, 2009 - PRLog -- According to the list below there is no particluar region in the UK which is not at risk of being burgled.

In July of this year, Manchester was named as the UK's main burglary hotspot with 35 incidents for every 1,000 homes.  Greater Manchester Police, at the time, launched Operation Storm, an ongoing initiative to tackle the problem.  

From the crime busting raids on 200 properties across the city, Greater Manchester Police siezed £25,000 in cash and recovered drugs worth an estimated £50,000.  

Property valued at more than £65,000 - including televisions, watches and an Audi A3 - were also found.

Ch Supt Russ Jackson, leading the operation, said, "These arrests are down to the hard work and determination of police officers, staff and partner organisation across the county.

"The message to criminals that continue to offend is very simple - we will be coming for you, very soon, and you will be spending Christmas and New Year behind bars.

"The public can be asured that we will be keeping the pressure on over the coming weeks to ensure we continue to drive down this horrible crime that can leave victims frightened to be in their own homes, somewhere they should feel totally safe."

Here are the percentage of home insurance policies claimed on over 12 months by area.

1) Arnold, Notts, 0.42%
2) Leicester, Leicestershire, 0.35%
3) West Bridgford, Notts, 0.33%

7) Sheffield, South Yorks, 0.29%
8) Hornsea, London, 0.28%
9) Croydon, Surrey, 0.28%
10) Hove, East Sussex, 0.28%

Indeed, the impact of a burglary can be shocking for the whole family, the feeling of having ones privacy invaded and belongings taken by strangers can be stomach churning, very disconcerting and it can take a long time before victims are able to feel safe in their own homes again.
