This article examines the spatial and temporal evolution of robbery in Greece during the period 2013–2023. Drawing on official police records and population data, the study applies GIS-based spatial and statistical analysis to identify regional patterns and changes over time. The findings show an overall decline in robbery incidents during the decade under examination. However, robbery remains unevenly distributed across the country, with the highest concentration observed in the major urban areas of Attica and Thessaloniki. The article highlights the value of spatial analysis for understanding crime patterns and for supporting more targeted and evidence-based crime prevention policies.
