Greifswald: Idyllic, but with Rising Crime

The Hanseatic and university city of Greifswald, now again home to over 60,000 inhabitants (2024), is the district town of Vorpommern-Greifswald and captivates primarily with its old town and historic buildings, as well as an attractive overall cityscape showcasing architecture from numerous eras. As a centre for science and research, Greifswald is also an important conference venue for tourism in the MICE sector (Meetings Incentives Conventions Events); conferences take place, among other venues, at the university and its institutes. The Hanseatic city also benefits from its proximity to the islands Rügen and Usedom, which are popular holiday destinations and stimulate tourism in the Greifswald region.

 

Even though Greifswald invites you to relax with fascinating architecture and numerous nearby nature reserves, crime is nevertheless ever present. In the district, 17,361 criminal offences were reported in 2014. Particularly offences based on violence have risen markedly: offences against sexual self-determination involving violence and or exploitation of dependency relationships (up 13.2 per cent), dangerous and grievous bodily harm (up 5.4 per cent) and threats (up 7 per cent). Police forces are often powerless and undermanned. Due to ongoing budgetary cuts by politicians, law-enforcement agencies are understaffed and must rely on inadequate, outdated technical equipment. Our private investigators in Greifswald, by contrast, have sufficient personnel and technical resources to handle every case comprehensively and professionally. We are happy to explain our approach in detail: kontakt@kurtz-detektei-rostock.de.

Cross-Border Investigations

Alongside violent offences, property crimes have also increased sharply. Vehicle theft in particular rose by 28.7 per cent, much of it attributable to the proximity of the Polish border; locating the stolen vehicles is difficult, as reflected in the low police clearance rate (AQ) of 36.9 per cent. Thanks to excellent contacts with detective agencies and authorities abroad, our corporate investigators for Greifswald are able in most cases to locate stolen goods and thus secure the return of the misappropriated property.

 

Residential burglaries and falsification and property offences – primarily counterfeiting of banknotes, vouchers, cheques and bills of exchange – also increased significantly. The introduction of counterfeit money alone recorded an unfortunate increase of 31 cases: whereas in 2013 there had been only one case, 32 were reported in the following year. This represents a rise of an astonishing 3,100 per cent!
