The difference between burglary and robbery is that robbery is a face to face crime which usually involves a weapon such as a gun. If someone burglarizes you they are getting into your home or car and taking your property - most often when no one is around to catch them. Burglars are most commonly amateurs and are breaking into homes to take things they can cash out to buy drugs. They are not looking to be identified or to be confronted by the person they are stealing from, and usually are not. It's the easier and safer way to commit a crime so it appeals to more people.
