Crime Prevention & Safety

The information contained in these pages has been gathered from years of police work, as well as extensive research in the field of crime prevention.

In order to keep yourself, the people you care about and your property safe, you need to remember there are three things necessary for a crime to occur:

• a victim
• a suspect
• an opportunity

If you take away one of these ingredients, you will not become another victim. We encourage you to review the resources we've compiled in order to minimize your risk to crime and assist the VPD in making Vancouver a safe city.
