Plüderhausen: Crime is falling – our city is so safe!
In Plüderhausen, the current crime statistics provide positive news. The number of crimes fell significantly last year, which is a reassuring development for citizens. According to the evaluation by the head of the Schorndorf police station, Stephan Schlotz, there was a 23 percent decrease in crimes compared to the previous year. This positive turnaround comes after an increase of nearly 20 percent the year before, which had temporarily strained the situation in the community. ZVW reports that citizens in Plüderhausen can now feel safer.
The decline in crime is part of a broader trend that can be observed in many German cities. Many municipalities are actively working to increase their security and protect citizens from crime. An example of this is the Crime Atlas 2024, which analyzes registered crime in Saxony in detail. This atlas, which is based on police crime statistics, is updated annually and provides a valuable basis for identifying local crime hotspots. Saxony Police emphasizes that the frequency figures are used as a measure of the crime burden by relating the number of crimes to the population size.
A look at the statistics
The statistical data is crucial to develop targeted crime control measures at both regional and local levels. The basis for the frequency figures is the population status as of December 31, 2023 and the area status as of January 1, 2024. The population figures for districts come from the population register, which enables a more precise analysis of the respective population dynamics.
Larger cities such as Leipzig, Dresden and Chemnitz, as well as their surrounding areas, are often particularly affected by crime. These areas tend to have higher crime rates compared to more rural regions. But security is not only important in hot spots; There are also numerous areas with low crime levels that are doing well.
Overall, the return to reduced crime rates in Plüderhausen shows a positive development, which is supported by committed police work and the conscious security management of the communities. It remains to be hoped that this trend will continue and safety will continue to improve for all citizens.
