A location suited to commit robbery is a location that has a combination of characteristics that are conductive to committing robbery. These characteristics are:
- The location is busy enough to easily obscure suspect behaviour and to allow disappearing in the crowd, but not that busy that moverment is restricted too much.
- The location has times, locations or areas with little or no surveillance.
- The location offers multiple and preferably quick exits.
Examples of such locations include parking lots and garages, parks, fields, playgrounds, and areas near public transportation[1] and ATMs[2].
More indications that an object might be an attractive target to fanatics can be found on the page about robbery.
