Rotterdam, Amsterdam and Nieuwegein are also doing their best
Safely park your car without worrying about burglary? Then place it in the municipality of Tytsjerksteradiel. According to police figures, there have been zero car break-ins there this year. Converted that is zero per ten thousand inhabitants. That is even fewer than in Schiermonnikoog, where almost no cars are allowed. The frontrunner in the Netherlands is the municipality of Utrecht, where with 76.3 car burglaries per ten thousand inhabitants the most car windows are tinkered. In total there were 2,743 from January to October. This is evident from figures from LocalFocus.

‘Now it mainly concerns gangs that steal equipment from a car or disassemble expensive parts on order. There is a lot of trade in that. The steering wheel of the Audi A3, for example, is popular and the navigation systems of somewhat older Volkswagens,’ André Bouwman of the National Information Center Vehicle Crime told the newspaper. NOS. The news medium also reports that car break-ins decreased during the curfew. Don’t worry about the criminals; Noord-Holland, Noord-Brabant and Overijssel again had a record number of burglaries last month.
The fewest car break-ins are in Tytsjerksteradiel, Vlieland and Terschelling
You are not allowed to just come by car in Vlieland, so it is logical that there are few car burglaries there. According to statistics, there have been no car break-ins there this year. Also in Terschelling, where you can in principle just come by car, there have been no burglaries according to statistics. By the way, this only concerns the burglaries that have been reported to the police – no inquiries have been made with the crooks guild to check the statistics.
