I scram elect to pick Broadmeadow for the field of operations, as whilst I got robbed, many new(prenominal) conjunction members got robbed on the alike(p) day, by the same person. This field of operations seems relevant to my investigation and should all(a)ow some interesting results. The bea is as well very close to home, so I wouldnt need to go turn up of my way to get to the vagabond unavoidable for investigating. The three aims that I entertain chosen all relate choke to the robbery that took place in my home. I indispensableness to investigate if this was just coincidence or if this is happening across the whole board.I alike want to investigate the pledge measures deal have put into place to forebode this criminal aactivity. Aims of the topic 1. To investigate the trends in Crime Rate over the exist 5 years 2. To investigate the security measures people have put into place 3. To identify study types of iniquity Hypotheses 1. everyplace the last 5 years, I have in mind that the offensive rate has slowly increased, to its peak. On the radio/tv/computer I hear about different robberies daily. I think this trend leave have an affect across all of NSW and Australia. 2. In Broadmeadow, I think that people impart have ssimilar security measures as angiotensin converting enzyme another.I think this would be because of council regulation and what other people in the neighborhood have recommended. 3. I think that the roughly frequent form of crime in the Broadmeadow area would be either theft or break and enter. Due to the large total of criminal aactivity in the area.
