If you have ever wondered what is the most dangerous city for losing your laptop to thieves, the answer is not blowing in the wind: the Windy City of Chicago, according to a new report from Absolute software.

Chicago accounted for 12.5% of the thefts in the top 20 cities. Next was Houston, with 11.9%, followed by Detroit with 11.3%. Internationally, London was tops, followed by Sonder Felding, Denmark and Paris.)

Peak time for theft of corporate-owned laptop is in June and July, which are major travel months.

Consumer-owned laptops are most likely to be stolen at back-to-school time and just before Christmas—also the peak time for buying.
