Never had anything happen to me, or my immediate family. We live in a very low-crime area, however. I have distant family who have been burgled a few times, though.
Here's my post-code's crime report:

21 crimes in the half-mile radius for the month of April, 2012.
For comparison, my Uni post-code:

171 crimes.
And, for shits and giggles, here's the crime report for Upper Clapton Road in Hackney, London
