Tigard's crime rate is significantly higher than the average crime rate of any and all communities across the nation, be it the largest city, or the smallest town.  An individual’s chance of being a victim to either a property or violent crime in Tigard is 1 in 35.  However, at 29 crimes per one thousand residents, Tigard remains below the communities with the very highest crime rate.  Tigard's crime rate is higher than 77% of the state's cities and towns, relative to Oregon.

In 2015, property crime rate dropped by 14.4% ​from 2011’s estimate, and dropped by 25.7% from 2006’s estimate.  Keeping in mind that statistics can vary significantly from region to region, the overall rate of property crime in 2015 was changed by 19% due to a significant decrease of 13.9 victimizations per 1,000- while the Northeast as a whole showed a 5.9% decrease.  While today’s rate of burglary crimes have decreased since the past, thousands upon thousands of homes are still broken into by the year (a near 325,000 estimate), most often in the middle of the day.

A fairly obvious fact is that burglars will try avoiding any and all houses that are too difficult or too risky to break into.  With a well-performing security system and monitored security services, rest assured that your household and family will have properly taken necessary precautions against these crimes- simply having an alarm system is enough to make any burglar reconsider.  This is why security system providers offer signs to put in your yard, as a forewarning.
