Although violent crime has fallen recently and burglary is far less common now than 10 years ago, around one third of students become a victim of crime while at university.

There was a time when the only 'high-tech' items in a student house were the telly from your dad's garage, which was already dated when the queen's silver jubilee was on, and a twin tape player with a broken 'record' button.

Today, students have more high-value consumer goods per head than the rest of the population; 66% own a computer or laptop, 86% have a mobile phone and many have their own TV, stereo and car as well.
