Affordable Indoor Home Security Systems

Now more than ever, home security should be top of mind. Property crime rates in the Seattle area continue to outpace the average United States city.  FBI crime indices range 1 (low crime) to 100 (high crime) per 1000 residents.  Seattle property crime sits at 76.9 compared to the United States average of 35.4. (Places 2021)  Property crime includes the offenses of burglary, larceny-theft, motor vehicle theft, and arson. The objectives of criminals are money or valuable property assets, but there is no force or threat of force against the victims.  Seattle has recorded 6,057 property crimes in 2021, of which 1618 were burglaries. (Department 2021)
