Common Tips On How To Help Keep Your Community Safe

If you need to reduce crime, there's a lot you might do about your street’s safety. Use these five effective tips to keep your community secure and inviting.

Know your community: The more you meet people in your neighborhood, the simpler it will be to protect one another. Many communities in Philadelphia have also started a coordinated neighborhood watch.

Invest in a monitored security system: If a thief sets off a motion sensor, it can stop them from lurking around that same neighborhood for a while. Your outside security cameras could also catch intruders running through your yard when fleeing from your neighbor's house.

Keep items hidden in your car: Storing your billfold, iPad, or smartphone in your car can invite a vehicular break-in. If you can, double check you have expensive items or leave them out of sight under the seat or trunk.

Install outside motion lights: Light keeps a burglar off guard. By installing motion floodlights over a deck or a back doorway, you might prevent a burglary before it starts.

Tell trusted people when you’re out of town: Let a trusted neighbor know when you’re going away to visit relatives, and give them a front door key or door lock code in case of emergency. Although, don’t post vacation plans to social media if at all possible.
