摘要：In the course of less than three decades the suburbs of Bratislava have undergone a dynamic development connected with the intensive process of suburbanisation. Of the whole country, the suburbs of Bratislava have experienced significant positive changes that have distinctively increased their importance. However, dynamic development has also brought negative sides into the suburbs, and some problems connected with crime, too. The aim of this contribution is to capture the contemporary scene, development, and changes related to crime in the suburbs of Bratislava, and to identify the main causes and conditions which determine the incidence of crime. The results showed that the Bratislavan suburbs are safer than the capital, and also confirmed the connections and links between the selected kinds of crime and some of the monitored indicators.
