Summary/Abstract: In the present article, we reflect on the victimization survey conducted as part of the research project BRIZOLIT (Security Risks in Socially Excluded Localities). Our main focus is on the methodological, epistemological and ethical problems which appeared during the survey among inhabitants ofthe so-called socially excluded localities in April — August 2016. More specifically, we will deal withthe issues related to the construction of our research object, interviewing strategies, as well as problems of validity of survey data with regard to the complex processes of victimization in socially excluded localities. In other words, we will try to answer three rather basic questions: „Who did weresearch? How did we do it? How did we record our findings?“ and hope to provide clues for futureresearchers facing similar problems.
