Security in Bergen
According to the crowd-sourced global database Numbeo, as of 2024, Bergen has a safety index of 74.82 (where 100 is the safest). This ranks Bergen as a generally safe city, that also has some room for improvement.
Securing Begens’s Oil and Gas Industry
Bergen is a key hub for Norway’s offshore oil and gas industry, with many companies having headquarters or regional offices in the city. Securing offshore installations and the seagoing transport of personnel and equipment requires expert maritime security.
Organised Crime
Bergen does have some presence of organised criminal groups, particularly in the drug trade. Much of Norway comprises a long, thin strip of land alongside the Norwegian Sea with borders to Sweden, Finland, and Russia. This provides plenty of scope for organised cross-border criminal activity like shoplifting gangs and illegal migration.
Retail Crime
Shoplifting: A Norwegian survey reported a significant increase in shoplifting incidents in 2021 compared to previous years. In 2021, 72% of retailers reported an increase in shoplifting, up from 52% in 2020.
Employee Theft: Employee theft has also been on the rise. In 2021, 21% of retailers reported an increase in employee theft, compared to 14% in 2020.
