What Is the Difference Between Robbery and Burglary?

While robbery and burglary charges are often considered the same, these crimes are classified as separate offenses with differing elements. Robbery involves taking property directly from another party and there is an element or use of violence while perpetrating the offense. While burglary involves entering a property illegally with the intent to steal or commit another crime. Robbery is considered a more serious charge with more severe penalties.
