Ways to Keep Your Erie Home And Neighborhood Secure
You may be surprised to discover there’s more criminal activity in your neighborhood than you expected. Fortunately, there are ways you can better secure your home and keep thieves out of your Erie neighborhood. Use the following recommendations:
- Become familiar with your neighbors: Build relationships with the people living around you and look out for each other. Many Erie neighborhoods have started neighborhood watch organizations.
- Get a security system: Whenever an intruder triggers an alarm, it will dissuade them from lurking around your neighborhood. Outside security cameras are among the most effective deterrents, as criminals don’t want to be seen on camera.
- Keep valuables out of your car. Leaving your wallet, keys, or smartphone in your parked vehicle can lead to a break-in. If possible, take expensive items with you or place them out of view underneath a seat or in the trunk.
- Install motion-activated lighting: Light deters thieves. By installing motion-sensing lights adjacent to the garage or a back door, you can stop a burglary before it begins.
- Let friends know when you leave town: Tell a trusted neighbor when you’re going to be gone and provide a front-door key or smart lock code for emergencies. Don’t post travel plans on Facebook and other social media apps.
