I live in a safe neighborhood with a Neighborhood Watch Program. Do I really need a monitored home security system?
While Neighborhood Watch Programs are beneficial, they are not staffed by professional law enforcement personnel. According to the FBI and the National Home Security Council, a burglary is committed every 12 seconds in the United States. That’s 86,000 burglaries every year! Homes without a home security system are 2.7 times more likely to be burglarized, so the short answer is “Yes”.
