- In the 2002-3 British Crime Survey 15 per cent of people were very worried about physical attack, down from 18 per cent in 1998. 22 per cent of women said they were very worried, down from 27 per cent, but there was little change amongst men.
- The proportions of people very worried about car theft and burglary fell for both men and women, and have done so since the early 1990s.
