Question

For nylig har en undersøgelse vist, at det kun er halvanden procent af befolkningen, der risikerer at blive overfaldet i løbet af et år. Det er halvt så mange som i en tilsvarende undersøgelse fra 80’erne.

Risikoen for at blive udsat for vold fra én, man ikke kender, er faktisk ret lille. Når det endelig sker, går det ofte udover unge. For ældre, som normalt er mere bekymrede end de unge, er risikoen minimal, men eksperterne mener, at myten om den stigende vold er skadelig for ældres livskvalitet.

Answer 1

A research has recently shown that  half of the population risk getting attacked during the time of a year.

it's a half less than in a similar research from the 80's. The risk to be a victime of violence from a stranger you don't know is actually quite small. when it happens the victimes are often young people.  Elder persons, that normally are more troubled than young are less expsoed of violence, but scientists underlines that the myth about soaring violence makes quality of life worse for elder people.
