How To Keep Your St. Louis Home And Neighborhood Secure
You may be surprised to find out there’s a higher concentration of criminal behavior in your neighborhood than you expected. Fortunately, there are things you can do to better protect your home and keep criminals out of your St. Louis neighborhood. Use these recommendations:
- Become familiar with your neighbors: Build relationships with people living nearby and keep an eye out for each other. Quite a few St. Louis neighborhoods have begun neighborhood watch groups.
- Get a security system: Whenever a prowler trips an alarm, it will discourage them from sneaking around your neighborhood. Exterior security cameras are one of the most powerful deterrents, as criminals will take measures to avoid being captured on camera.
- Keep valuables out of your car. Leaving your keys, wallet, or laptop in your car can result in a break-in. If you can, bring expensive items indoors or place them out of view in the trunk or under a seat.
- Use motion-activated lighting: Light deters potential burglars. By adding motion-activated lights over the garage or a back door, you can stop an intrusion before it starts.
- Let those you trust know when you leave: Inform a trusted neighbor when you leave on a trip and supply them with a front-door key or smart lock code in the event of an emergency. Avoid posting on Facebook and other social platforms.
